1. Without a master's degree certificate, you should not be considered to have a master's degree. You only have a master's degree certificate. You can only say that you have a master's degree.

In the past, in-service graduate students could only get a degree certificate, but now part-time graduate students can get a double certificate.

Master qualification

Generally speaking, taking a master's degree only needs to complete a specific course to achieve the required results, while most master's courses in philosophy require not only excellent grades, but also full-time academic research and writing master's thesis before graduation.

The time required to complete the course-based master's program varies from one year to two years, and the admission qualification is generally a bachelor's degree. On the other hand, because the master of philosophy needs to do full-time research and serve as a teaching assistant, the requirements for admission qualifications will be much higher.

Applicants are usually required to have a bachelor's degree and obtain second-class honor, first-class honor or even first-class honor. It usually takes two to two and a half years to complete the master of philosophy course, and sometimes the study time is extended because of research difficulties, but usually it will not exceed four years.
