Full-time-academic master's degree, its academic system is generally 3~5 years, during which theoretical study is the main part. Most colleges and universities have a three-year master's degree, with the first year of classes and the second year of research under the guidance of tutors.
But some schools have a schooling of two and a half years or two years. In terms of graduation requirements, the threshold of master's degree is relatively high, and periodical papers need to be published. If they don't finish, they will face the risk of delaying graduation.
Full-time-professional master, its academic system is generally 2~3 years, most colleges and universities are two years, including not less than half a year's internship.
In terms of graduation requirements, the master's degree is not as strict as the master's degree, so the probability of delaying graduation is not great. However, there is a heavy news recently, which I believe everyone has heard: many colleges and universities are gradually adjusting the master's training mode, and the original two-year college will be extended to 2.5 years or even 3 years.
