American graduate students have different academic systems according to their majors, which is also related to their course selection. Students of the same major have different courses, which leads to different study years. This reflects the flexibility and humanization of American university courses, and students can arrange to complete their studies according to their own needs.
Master pays attention to practice.
Because American master's programs are mostly applied programs, which emphasize practice rather than research, most American graduate business courses are about 1 or 1 year and a half, and there are few two-year programs, but students can postpone graduation if they fail to complete the courses within the specified time.
Doctors pay attention to research results.
Doctoral students in American universities should not only publish a certain number of papers in authoritative academic journals, but also obtain convincing original research results.
Doctoral system is long.
Due to the flexible academic system, many people have to wait five to six years to get their degrees.
