When I went to school, a bachelor's degree took four years to obtain, and a masters degree was generally one additional year. In these modern times, a bachelor's degree often takes 5-6 years, and a masters two more. But this is more a level of how hard one studies, and how hard one parties.

A bachelor's degree in most areas can require between 120 to 128 college credits particular to a specific program of study. This would be based on a college or university that operates on a regular two semester academic year which is the most common. For institutions that operate on a tri-semester or quarter-semester it would be quite different.

That being said, the Bachelor's degree - in most cases - is designed as a four year program of study, provided the student is full-time and follows their chosen program of study as prescribed by the college or university, and also provided the individual does not require prerequisite or developmental coursework as a result of basic skills testing. The minimum credit load for a full-time student is no less than 12 credits per semester. However, to complete the degree within the four years, a credit load of approximately 15 to 18 credits is recommended. For individuals who work or who have other responsibilities that would prohibit them from attending full-time, completion of the degree may take twice as long. Still, some of this time can be cut down by attending summer sessions and/or interim sessions.

A bachelors degree in Astronomy would fit a person for work in a planetarium (as an operator) or for the science knowledge portion of what is needed for a writing carreer. To be qualified for research or teaching, a doctorate degree is needed and this may require an additional 2-4 years of study, sometimes more.

A single course would take one semester, the same as any other college course.

Completing a program in astronomy to get a Bachelor's degree would, likewise, take the same amount of time as any other Bachelor's degree... about four years.

In addition, the bachelors and associate degrees are referred to as undergraduate degrees while the masters and doctorate degrees referred to as graduate degrees.

The PhD would take approximately four years post bachelor's to complete. The actual length of time depends much on how long it takes a student to prepare and defend their dissertation, which is an individual student project on a topic with an original view point of the students choosing with extensive research and approved by a designated committee.

You will have to go to four years of school to get a bachelor's degree. Astronomers typically hold a PhD which could mean six or more years of school after earning your bachelor's.

Astronomers take five courses in college to prepare for astronomy, and the length of schooling takes around six years after a Bachelor of Science, which takes 4 years, so about 10 years.

Between six and eight years, but probably leaning more toward eight.
