Master is a term with a broad range of meanings and applications across various fields and contexts. It can refer to a person who has control or authority over others, a skilled practitioner of a particular art or profession, or a degree awarded by universities and colleges.

Master as a Title[edit | edit source]

In the context of social hierarchy, a master is an individual who has authority, control, or power over others. This could be in the context of a master-servant relationship, where the master has legal or traditional authority. In the Middle Ages, the term was often used to denote a man who had others working for him, such as servants or apprentices.

Master in Education[edit | edit source]

In the field of education, a Master's degree is an academic degree awarded by universities or colleges upon completion of a course of study demonstrating mastery or a high-order overview of a specific field of study or area of professional practice. Master's degrees are typically awarded for studies in the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and business.

Master in Arts and Professions[edit | edit source]

In arts and professions, a master is a person who is skilled in a particular field, whether it be the arts, crafts, or other professions. This could range from a master painter, who is highly skilled and respected in the field of painting, to a master carpenter, who has achieved a high level of skill and expertise in carpentry.
