First of all, part-time graduate students also pass the national unified examination and are selected on the basis of merit. After passing the national graduate score line or marking the school score line separately, you can enter the school, and graduate in the school by completing the course and completing the thesis defense, and obtain the graduation certificate and degree certificate. This is not much different from full-time graduate students.
Many people are worried about the authority of part-time graduate students and think that many units and institutions do not recognize part-time graduate students. In fact, this phenomenon does exist, but fortunately, the relevant departments of national education have emphasized that part-time graduate students and full-time graduate students will be treated equally in the future. Although the final realization remains to be seen, it is also exciting news. After all, many people have no way and conditions to study full-time graduate students, so they have to settle for part-time jobs.
There are still some differences between part-time graduate students and full-time graduate students. For example, candidates are very different. For full-time graduate students, many candidates are fresh college students, because college students have more energy and time to prepare for the exam. However, for part-time students, there may be many social workers taking the exam, because they can't choose full-time students and don't have so much time and energy, so the competition for the exam may be relatively less intense than full-time.
Because part-time graduate students are mostly aimed at social workers or people who can't take part-time exams, part-time teaching methods are more flexible, and they will take part-time ways, such as studying on weekends or at night.
In addition, part-time graduate students may not have many grants and scholarships.
