The degree has different names depending on what faculty you graduate from. For example, if you're getting a degree in a humanistic subject or in nature science, the degree is called filosofian tohtorin tutkinto, or filosofian maisterin tutkinto and in technical subjects the degree is called diplomi-insinöörin tutkinto. In most others it's called master of something, for example musiikin maisterin tutkinto(in music) or teologian maisterin tutkinto (in theology).
