The educational system in Australia is very different.
According to different majors, Australian full-time master's courses are generally divided into 1 year, 1.5 years, 2 years and 3 years.
Among them, the academic system is mainly 1.5 years and 2 years, such as accounting, IT, engineering and other majors have a variety of academic systems to choose from.
1 year and 3-year courses account for a small part. At present, I study undergraduate in Australia, and then I study master's degree in Australia, which is basically a one-year program.
Australia 2-year master's degree:
The Australian master's degree is mainly two years. Basically, IT, business, media, engineering and other majors are all two-year masters. Generally speaking, domestic students applying for studying in Australia mainly apply for a two-year master's degree. The first 65,438+0.5 years of two-year master's degree are basically teaching, and the second half is internship practice. Moreover, after graduating from a two-year master's degree, you will get an open work visa for two years, so if you want to get a work visa, you must remember to apply for a two-year master's degree, but you can't get a work visa for one and a half years.
1.5 year master program:
Australia also offers 1.5 year master's program, so which majors and students can apply for 1.5 year master's program?
Students who apply for the 1.5-year master's degree program in Australia are basically students with the same undergraduate professional background as those who apply for a master's degree, such as those who want to apply for a master's degree in finance. Or majors with high correlation can be exempted for half a year. This is the master's degree 1.5 years. For example, the Master of Commerce (MCOM) of professional accounting in the University of Queensland requires two years for undergraduate non-accounting majors, and can apply for undergraduate accounting majors in 1.5 years, and the basic courses are exempted in the first half of the year. This kind of course is very suitable for students who don't want to get a work permit and want to return to China as soon as possible to save time.
Australia 1 year system and 3-year system;
Australia also has a small number of one-year and three-year postgraduate academic systems, so the students who apply for one-year master's degree are basically undergraduate students in Australia and those who continue to study in Australia, and their majors are the same. This is basically a four-year graduate student, saving time, graduating early and working early.
Individual majors in Australia are 3-year masters, such as Master of Architecture from Melbourne University, Western Australia University and Monash University. For students with no undergraduate background, it is a three-year system, and for students with undergraduate background, it is a two-year system, or try to meet students' personal choices. Including doctor of law of Melbourne University, master of chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, quantity measurement, real estate appraisal and chemical engineering are all three-year master's courses.
In fact, no matter how many years of master's degree in Australia, it can only be said that Australia provides students with a variety of choices, so that different students can choose their own courses. Students and friends should also choose their own majors and academic systems according to their actual conditions, and don't blindly follow suit.
