What education do you need before you can pursue a master's degree?In: Graduate Degrees [Recategorize] |
[Edit] |
Answer
a bachelor's degree
EDUCATION
The way I understand it goes like this....
High School Graduate. Associate Degree. Bachelor's Degree. Master's Degree. Philosophy Degree. (PHD)
After you specialize in ONE field, you get degrees in other subject matter. I can get a PHD in science, then retrain in botany. Or you can pursue several fields at once, but the study is way too intense to graduate, unless you are severely dedicated. Education limits you to one or two fields of study/expertise.
The reason is....
High School Degree takes 12 years. Associate's Degree takes 2. Bachelor's Degree takes 4. Master's Degree takes 2. PHD takes 4.
For each course of study mind you.
If you graduate at 17-18, and you take 12 years to specialize in one field, you are now 29-30. Add 12 to specialize in another field, and you are 41-42.
It kinda denotes a commitment to education, and very little free time to live your life.
Hope it helps. Peace.
