Degrees Offered By USA Universities
Undergraduate studies in the U.S. are designed to encourage academic exploration. Students begin with general education courses before focusing on a major. The system supports flexibility and critical thinking.
The bachelor’s degrees are of two types:
B.A. Degree (Bachelor of Arts) and B.S. Degree (Bachelor of Science)
Bachelor’s degree programs are generally spread over 4 years. The first 2 years normally involve studying liberal arts subjects and may also award an associate degree. Students can apply for the bachelor’s degree immediately after completion of Std. XII. However, those who have completed a part of the undergraduate degree here and want to apply to US universities can apply as a “transfer student,” wherein you may be granted advanced entry or transfer of credit for courses already completed. Good scores on SAT and TOEFL exams are prerequisites for seeking admission in the 1st year (freshman) in top-ranked universities.
Masters Degree: The duration of Masters Degree is normally 2 years. The different types of Masters Degree are:
- Master of Arts (M.A.) Degree is offered by faculties like Economics, Sociology, etc.
Engineering, Biological Sciences Chemistry, Pharmaceutical Science, Finance, Marketing, etc.
- Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree is offered to students wishing to pursue Business Major
Students who have completed 16 years of education are eligible to apply for the Masters Degree Programs. Therefore, students from Engineering, Agriculture, Pharmacy and Medical Colleges can apply for an M.S., M.A. or MBA programs immediately after their Bachelors Degree. However, students who have completed 15 years of education and have secured their B.Com, B.Sc. or B.A. Degrees, should complete their Masters Degree or atleast one year of the Masters program in India to qualify for admission in reputed American Universities. However many reputed schools are now accepting Indian students with 15 years of education into their programs, if students are fulfilling other admission criteria. A good GRE/GMAT score and TOEFL score are prerequisites for seeking admission in top ranked Universities.
Doctoral Degree:
PhD programs in the U.S. focus on original research, innovation, and scholarly contribution. Students work closely with faculty, often receiving assistantships or funding.
The PhD degree, or doctoral degree, which ranges from 3 to 8 years, is the most advanced and research-intensive course offered. Indian students with a completed master’s degree can be admitted into a PhD program. Candidates with B.E. or M.B.B.S. degrees from India can also get direct admission for a PhD program. Many universities insist on a GRE score for PhD admission.
