Degree system

Professional degree is the product of the development of modern higher education, which is at the same level as academic degree and has different training specifications. Professional degree and degree together constitute two indispensable parts in the modern higher education degree system, which are both related and different.

Professional degrees and degrees are based on the same subject, and those who study for the two degrees need to receive the same basic education and master the basic theory, knowledge and technology of the subject. At different stages of education, the two types of degree winners can cross-develop and continue their studies. For example, an academic master can study for a professional doctor, and a professional master can also study for an academic doctor.

The essential difference between a professional degree and a degree lies in the differences in personnel training objectives, knowledge structure, training mode and personnel quality standards. The more mature higher education is, the clearer the division between the two systems will be.
