How does a MajorMasters Program compare to a full master's?
A MajorMasters Program is different from a master's degree program in that it doesn't provide participants with a master's degree upon completion. It instead offers a verified certificate that proves you've passed the graduate-level courses.
It also gives students the chance to explore the rigor of master's degree programs and graduate-level coursework without investing the time and money required for a complete program.
While a master's degree program generally takes between two and three years to complete, a MajorMasters Program can take as few as six months. It often includes around 2-8 graduate-level courses that can count toward a master's degree at Eastbourne Sussex School of Business and Economics.
