How to choose the right master’s degree
01
Research or taught
A taught degree, like MA or M.Sc., one can expect it to take a year full-time including modules and exams, as well as a dissertation. However, if you choose to go for a research degree (like MRes, Mphil), which can take longer than a year as you are completing original research, it is usually estimated at one to two years.
02
Subject selection
Courses in arts, humanities and sciences will tend to be of standard length – a year. In exceptions like Social Work MA, one can expect the timescale to be around two years so as to accommodate the work experience and vocational aspect of such a course.
03
Full-time or part-time
This goes without saying that a full-time master’s degree will take the least time, which is one year. In case of part-time degrees, the duration varies from one university to another depending on how long they allow you to complete the program.
04
Distance learning
With distance learning, there is an addition of many other variables which determine time duration. For example, in an Open University, you get a period of ten years to complete the required credits, which is by now the longest route to get into some master’s course.


Eligibility requirements
The eligibility criteria for business management courses depend on the university or institution you are applying to. However, here are the most common requirements for most institutions:
-
A bachelor’s degree in a related field from a recognised university.
-
Minimum 3-5 years of work experience.
-
English Language proficiency test scores such as IELTS (minimum band of 6).
