Linda,
Your IUG proposal looks like a good opportunity for your top tier
undergraduate students without any adverse effects that I can see on the
existing undergraduate or graduate programs.
On behalf of the Behrend Computer Science faculty, I have no objections
to the proposal and wish you all the best in getting it approved and
implemented.

I received this request for consultation today from our
colleagues at Harrisburg. They are proposing an Integrated BS-MS
in Computer Science. I have just begun to review the proposal
and will reply as requested by 9/22.
Please let me know if you have any comments you would like
included.

The Computer Science Program at Penn State Harrisburg is
proposing an Integrated Undergraduate Graduate (IUG) program in
Computer Science. This program would allow a student to
complete both the BS and the MS degrees in Computer Science at
PSH in 5 years. Penn State already has a number of these
programs in place:
