Bachelor of Art in Political Science to Master of Art in Political Science Fast Track allows outstanding senior undergraduate Political Science (POLS) students to take up to three graduate courses (5000-level courses) to replace up to nine credit hours of advanced POLS undergraduate courses (3000- or 4000-level courses); the credit hours earned in these graduate courses can then be applied to both the Bachelor of Arts (BA) and to the Master of Arts (MA) in Political Science. Those who successfully complete the program will be automatically admitted to the Graduate School. They will not be required to take any qualifying test, complete an application for admission to the Graduate School, arrange for letters of reference, or pay an application fee. This enables students to complete their MA degree in a shorter time period

The Bachelor of Arts in Spanish Translation and Interpreting provides foundational academic and professional preparation in Spanish-English and English-Spanish translation and interpreting. Through experiential learning in language classes, as well as in more advanced courses in medical, business, technical, scientific, legal, and community translation and interpreting, students are trained to be multilingual and intercultural. In addition to linguistic and cultural competence, students gain valuable skills in critical thinking, communication, and problem-solving. During enrollment in the program, students have the opportunity to gain professional experience at non-profit organizations through service learning. The substantive program provides students multiple career prospects in the language-services industry or in other professional areas requiring advanced use and translation and interpreting of Spanish such as health, business, education, advertising, criminal justice, media communication, and social services.
