Master of Science
Master of Science (often abbreviated M.Sc. or MS) is a postgraduate degree awarded by universities around the world for completion of graduate level study in a science- or technology-related field.
Overview[edit | edit source]
Enrolling in an MS program translates into a significant investment in one’s professional career. In addition to the enhanced career prospects that can be gained by taking a Master of Science, students also develop valuable personal skills and fulfill a crucial prerequisite to PhD study. Biological and Life Sciences, Business, Engineering and Technology, and the Natural Sciences are the key academic fields of study that offer a Master of Science degree.
Admission[edit | edit source]
Admission to a master's program is normally contingent upon holding a bachelor's degree. Some universities in the United States are beginning to offer postgraduate programs for holders of a bachelor's degree. These are sometimes known as an "entry-level master's program" or "graduate entry" program.
Duration[edit | edit source]
The completion of a Master of Science degree usually requires two years of full-time study.
