No, you do not have to take your graduate work at the same institution. Many individuals take their graduate work at other schools, because of the availability of their program of choice, location, price, reputation etc.
I did not need a reference when I graduated from my undergrad program at DeVry and started my graduate program at Keller.
Typically, there is no difference. They are calculated in the same way.
Post grad diploma usually carries 120 credits whilst a masters hold 180 credits, in addition one can assume that a PG is for the introduction into a new field of discipline, whilst an Masters is considered an advanced stage to the initial studies carried from previous knowledge
I can be. In terms of degrees, post bachelor's can be a master's degree, or doctorate seeing that there are some doctorate programs (for example, medical school) that one can apply to directly after completion of the bachelor's degree.
No it is not. The associate and bachelor's degree are undergraduate degrees. The master's and doctorate degrees are graduate degrees.
The two words are used interchangeably. They mean the same thing; an individual who had completed an undergraduate degree.
An associates degree takes approximately two years, and a bachelors four years as a full time student, and provided the student takes the degree as prescribed by the college or university. Both degrees are considered undergraduate degrees. If one already holds an associates degree in a transferable program within the same field of study, then the bachelors should only take an additional two years.
A certificate program does not meet the credit and course requirements of a degree. Thus, it is not the same as a college or university degree.
The words "college" versus "university" can be confusing......especially in the US, where they can mean different things, depending on the state and/or the school(s) in question.It would be nice if things in the US were more like they are in the UK, when it comes to the difference between "college" and "university." In the UK, the university is the large, overall institution; and then each of its constituent parts are called colleges... like the University of London system.And in that (University of London) system, there is no difference: a masters degree is a masters degree.Gratefully, despite the less-clear difference between "college" and "university" in the US, a masters degree, regardless which kind of institution issues it, is the same, from either. A masters degree is a masters degree. Period.In pretty much all cases, a "masters" degree consists of from, typically, 32 to 48 graduate semester credit hours, beyond a 120 undergraduate-semester-credit-hour "bachelors" degree.Though the credits are calculated differently in the UK, it's still the same: first a bachelors degree, and then a masters degree; and it matters, not, whether it's from a school that calls itself a "college," or one that calls itself a "university." In either case, it's post-secondary, graduate-level higher-education that's immediatelly beyond the post-secondary undergraduate bachelors degree.
The B-Arch is an undergraduate degree in architecture that can last up to five years. The B-Tech is a Bachelor of Technology and is a four year undergraduate degree.
No
A postgraduate/graduate diploma is a qualification awarded typically after a bachelor's degree. Different countries uses different Terminology. Essentially, they are the same. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graduate_diploma
Yes. You can get as many degrees from different universities. All you have to do is go to whichever university you want the degree from and enroll in and pass all the classes required, then do the same thing at any other university you want a degree from.
