So when people say university degree, is it usually Bachelor's degree then? I'm assuming Master's so 5-7 years. That's the default in Nordics, I don't know a single person with a Bachelor's.
- kinjba11 5y agoIn the US at least, Bachelor's is much more common than a Master's. It depends on the area of study I bet. The views I grew up around about education treated Master's as a waste of money with a "go PhD or get a job after the 4 year bachelor" prevailing theme.
- distances 5y agoHere Master's is a requirement for quite many jobs such as teaching. Bachelor's is enough for jobs such as preschool teachers and pharmacy clerks. Technical sciences didn't have a Bachelor's even as an option until some time ago. I think it wasn't seen as useful, and still these days Master's is the default. Tuition is free so there's no direct cost associated with studying longer.
