In fact, the so-called masters and masters are very distinctive types in China, and there is no such distinction in other countries.

Special master refers to professional master, which is a unified master's degree in universities all over the world; Master refers to academic master. At present, for universities all over the world, the unified master's degree is still a unified degree. A master's degree is different from a master's degree. This is a unique degree system in China.

What's the difference between a master and a master?

1, different cultivation methods and objectives

Schoolmaster: Schoolmaster focuses on academic research, with more emphasis on theoretical research, mainly focusing on training college teachers and researchers. In the process of training, we should pay more attention to the study of basic theories and the ability and quality of scientific research and innovation.

Special master: special master is a close combination of academic and professional, generally oriented to practical application, more according to professional needs, to enhance students' ability to transform theory into practical application. The trained talents are mainly engaged in jobs with obvious occupations, such as engineers, financiers, doctors and accountants.

To sum up, it is a word that specialization is based on professional practice and pays more attention to practice and application; Master's degree is academic, focusing on academic research.

2. The application requirements are different.

Master: To apply for a master's degree, you must first meet one condition. Only undergraduate graduates with nationally recognized academic qualifications can apply (of course, there are some special circumstances, which can be compared with the enrollment brochures of major universities).

Master: the prerequisite for applying for a master's degree is the same as that for applying for a master's degree, that is, a bachelor's degree recognized by the state. However, the difference between applying for a master's degree and a master's degree is that some majors, such as engineering management and business administration, not only need to meet the academic requirements, but also require candidates to have a certain number of years of relevant work experience before applying for a master's degree.

3. The major of enrollment is different.

Xueshuo: At present, there are still a wide range of majors for enrolling students. As long as you meet the requirements, you can apply for almost all major directions under the 13 discipline.

Master's degree: Compared with master's degree, master's degree is much smaller in the choice of major, because the enrollment of master's degree is more targeted. At present, only 40 majors can apply, such as finance, business administration, engineering management and so on.

4. Adjustment is different

Master's degree: Generally speaking, because the initial test of master's degree is generally more difficult than master's degree, it is usually possible to transfer to master's degree, which is also determined by the test difficulty;

Super Master: As mentioned above, the difficulty of super master is less than that of academic master, so even if you are admitted to the super master, you may not be able to enter the academic master. Naturally, under normal circumstances, a super master cannot be transferred to an academic master;

Of course, this is not absolute. For example, the adjustment method in clinical medicine is just the opposite of the above situation. The Lord cannot adjust the Lord, but the Lord can adjust the Lord. You need to pay attention to this

5. The academic system is different from the tuition.

Educational system: Generally speaking, the master's degree is usually 3 years, while the master's degree is 2-3 years. Of course, with the continuous reform of major universities, the academic system of many majors has now risen to three years.

Tuition: In terms of postgraduate tuition, the state has relevant regulations: in principle, the master's degree does not exceed 8,000 yuan per year, and the fees charged by major universities are relatively fixed; The special master's degree is determined according to the charging standard that is not higher than the current self-funded graduate students of general majors in our school, so different universities may fluctuate, ranging from 6,000 a year to hundreds of thousands of expensive ones, such as the EMBA managed by Peking University Guanghua, which is 660,000 for two years.

6, the difficulty of the exam is different

As mentioned in point 4 above, except for some special majors, the master's examination is more difficult than the master's.

For example, the difficulty of many public exams is different. Generally speaking, English II and Math III are taken for masters, and the difficulty is lower than that of English I and Math I for masters.

7. The tutorial system is different.

The tutorial system for master students is different from that for master students. To put it simply, master students generally implement the dual tutorial system, with on-campus tutors as the main guidance and off-campus tutors as the supplement, and participate in the guidance of students' internships, courses and papers; However, the master's degree is a single tutor system, that is, all the tutors in the school guide it.

8. The emphasis of the paper is different.

Master and master have different emphases on dissertations. The master's degree thesis emphasizes scientific theoretical research and academic innovation, which is academic. Professional master's thesis pays more attention to practical application, emphasizing the combination of practical examples and practicality.

9. There are different ways to read blogs.

Generally speaking, a master can read a PhD directly through a tutor without taking the unified examination; A master's degree is different. Generally speaking, you can't get rid of exams and study directly.

10, employment is different.

We have learned from the training objectives of master and master that master and master focus on academic research, and the other pays more attention to the combination with occupation. Naturally, there are also great differences between the two in employment.

After graduating from master's degree, they tend to develop in the direction of academic research, so most of them will choose to study in major universities; It is easier for specialists to enter enterprises, because they have enough work experience. After further study, their professional ability is naturally more suitable for enterprises, which has a great relationship with the direction of training.

Which is better, the master or the master?

After reading so much, many people may think, which is better, master or master? In fact, in Xue Jun's view, there is no question of who is better or worse. There are many differences between a master's degree and a master's degree, but that's only the difference of types, not who is better or who is worse. More should be combined with the specific situation of students to choose a type that is more suitable for further study.

Let me give you an example:

If you want to continue studying for a master's degree, develop in the research direction and work in colleges and universities in the future, it is undoubtedly more appropriate to choose a master's degree; If you want to enter an enterprise and find a practical job after graduation, then a master's degree will be more suitable.
