Postgraduate education is a kind of national education, which is generally carried out by ordinary universities with master's and doctoral degrees. After graduation, a graduate student can also be called a graduate student, which means a person with a graduate education.
In China, graduate students are divided into master students and doctoral students.
Academic graduate students and professional graduate students:
Academic graduate students generally refer to graduate students with academic degrees and established according to disciplines. They are oriented to academic research, emphasize theory and research, and mainly train university teachers and researchers in scientific research institutions.
