Students often ask why master’s degree offered by local universities take two to three years to complete. On the other hand, United States and Australia master’s degree take two years, but British master’s degree can be completed in a year. Will the duration of my studies affect the quality of education?

 

很多學生問為什麼國內碩士要兩到三年,美國及澳大利亞碩士也要兩年,而英國碩士只要一年,會不會出現含金量不如其它國家的問題?

 

Let us enlighten you as to why the duration needed to complete British master’s degree can be completed in a short period of time yet it will not affect the education quality.

 

讓我們告诉你為什麼完成英國碩士學位所需的時間很短,但不會影響教育質量。

 

Although the British master’s degree takes only one year to complete, the courses and assignments are well-arranged to ensure students learn and attain their full potential. Besides that, students are given sufficient time to complete their assignments for each subject. In fact, duration needed to complete the master’s degree is not a problem. Compared to the education system credits of various countries, the credits for a one-year master’s degree in the UK are completely equivalent to the master’s credits in other countries.

 

雖然英國碩士的學制只有一年,但是課業相當緊張,安排得也很滿。其實時間不是問題,對比各國的教育體制學分,英國一年碩士所修的學分完全等同於其它國家的碩士學分。

 

The UK master’s degree consists of 180 credits, of which master’s thesis accounts for 60 credits, that is, the remaining 120 credits are subject matter. For example, in the MBA program, you must fulfill at least 120 credits, usually 15 credits per subject. The British Master’s degree is divided into three semesters a year, four courses per semester and one semester of papers. Hence this is the reason why most of the UK master’s degree can be completed in one year.

 

英國碩士學位學分是180個學分,其中碩士論文佔60個學分,即餘下120個學分是學科內容,例如MBA學科內,你必須修讀120個學分科目,通常每科是15個學分,即8科加論文便可獲取MBA證書。而英國碩士分一年三個學期,每學期修讀4門及論文佔一個學期,所以大部份英國碩士也是一年便可完成了。

 

To earn a British MBA, it might be a little bit more challenging that the local MBA. Hence, make sure to study hard all the time. Otherwise, you may not be able to pass. Although some universities do not have exams and student are required to work fully on assignments, it is also important for them to write strong contents for their consultancy project to obtain a UK university certificate.

要學習英國MBA千萬不要覺得可以像在國內一樣臨時抱佛腳,不然的話就有可能過不了。千萬不可從其它書本抄襲當作自己作業,雖然部份大學沒有考試只以作業及論文評核,但也要自己努力才可獲取含金量的英國大學證書。

 

In a nutshell, it is not the duration that matters. It’s the quality of education you receive. Let us advise you the best programme for your future career path.

 

簡而言之,重要的不是時間的长短而是教育質量。讓我們為您未來的職業發展道路提供最佳课程建議。
