Actually the most important thing in the master courses is that they are actually of one year and some are of two years that’s why more and more students love to take masters courses. But remember one thing that it does not mean that the master courses are easier and cheaper in other countries but the qualification from the British Universities is worldwide recognized. The master courses are the most intensive courses then any other equivalent qualification.

The main reason is that the courses are completed mostly in 12 months that is the reason it makes them cheaper from all other courses.

Usually master courses are taught at the end of the September or at the start of the October but there are some other master courses that start in January. Mostly master courses can be described in four terms that are as follows:

September to December’s MID (3-4 weeks holidays for New Year and Christmas)

Actually the degree of doctorate mostly takes three or more years to independent type of study and mostly doctorates are always completed purely by research. There are many other degree in the doctorates field that are

PhD/DPhil (Means Doctor of Philosophy)

Actually the degree of PhD is different in the some other countries that are taught in the UK and the program of PhD is taken the most in the UK because it contains a substantial taught element. It is seen that mostly students always remain focus on an area of research before making a decision. A research proposal is usually written when ever someone chose any area of research and usually they are submitted and written with the applications. Students that haven’t focused on any research have many types of options.

Actually the first nine months are very similar to the one year taught masters programs with those students that are attending classes but more time can also be spend to develop a research proposal. Mostly students at the end of first nine months choose their field either as PhD or continue their study as MPhil. There is another leading variation to the decorate that are the DBA and DEd qualifications which are becoming very popular in all types of students and the other reason for its popularity is because of areas of businesses and education that comes in DBA and DEd
