The master of rural education is also awarded a professional master's degree, which belongs to a professional master's degree. The main difference between them is the way of awarding diplomas:

Master of rural education issues degrees and academic certificates.

Full-time professional masters also award degrees and diplomas.

Part-time professional masters only issue degree certificates (except for a few majors such as MBA).

"Rural school education master teacher training plan" (referred to as "master plan"), "master plan" is to select some outstanding undergraduate graduates from universities with postgraduate recommendation qualifications, recruit them as "master plan" graduates, and sign contracts with the education administrative department of the local government to hire them as regular teachers within the establishment.

Postgraduates of "Master Program" first teach in rural schools at or below the county level for three years, study while working, and learn basic postgraduate courses through modern distance education and concentrated face-to-face lectures in winter and summer vacations. Then, go to colleges and universities to study the core courses for one year and complete the defense of master's thesis in education. When I graduate, I will get a master's diploma and a master's degree certificate in education.

Professional degree is a kind of degree relative to academic degree, and its purpose is to cultivate applied senior professionals with solid theoretical foundation and meeting the actual needs of specific industries or occupations. Professional degree and academic degree are at the same level, with different training specifications and obvious differences in training objectives. The degree is established according to disciplines, oriented by academic research, emphasizing theory and research, and cultivating university teachers and researchers in scientific research institutions; Professional degree is oriented to professional practice, attaches importance to practice and application, and trains senior talents with formal and high-level training in specialty and specialized technology. The outstanding feature of professional degree education is the close combination of academic and professional. People with professional degrees are mainly engaged in jobs with obvious professional backgrounds, such as engineers, doctors, teachers, lawyers, accountants, etc., rather than academic research.
