In Britain, the time to get a degree is shorter than in most countries. For general majors, the undergraduate degree is three years, the master degree is only one year, and there is even a short-term degree of less than one year, which is relatively rare in most countries. Postgraduates in Britain can be divided into Master of Science (MA) and Master of Science (Mphi). The academic system of Master of Science is one year or less, which is divided into graduate students and students in class. The former only needs to complete a certain research plan and design, and the students in the class need to complete the graduation project in addition to three semesters. The Mphi system lasts for two years, and those who perform well during this period can be directly transferred to the doctoral program, which is unique to the UK. In other countries, such qualifications can only be treated as ordinary masters.

2. Disadvantages of studying in Britain
1. The cost of studying abroad is high
According to incomplete statistics, the cost of studying in Britain is the highest among several major countries in the world. In recent years, it has also been increasing, and the cost of studying abroad for one year has reached about 200,000-300,000 RMB. From this perspective, the cost of studying abroad is really high, and the average working family simply cannot afford it.
2. The number of visas is very small
There are a large number of international students going to Britain every year, but the number of visas is relatively fixed every year. Therefore, Britain will strictly control the number of international students. Moreover, the process of visa processing is more troublesome and the cycle is longer, which will lead to a large number of international students being refused visas.
3. The quality of education has declined.
With the increase of the number of international students, most or even all classes will come from China, which is not conducive to communication with British students, thus the quality of education will decline;
4. The course is very stressful
Although the education level in Britain is first-class, the corresponding curriculum pressure will be relatively high, and international students often need to stay up late to read books to complete related courses. In this way, we will not have a deep understanding of British society, nor can we broaden our horizons;
5. It is difficult to change majors.
The study abroad courses in Britain are only one year, and most of them are aimed at improving undergraduate majors, so it is difficult for most people to change their majors once they study abroad.
