ABOUT PRE-PROFESSIONAL
& POST-BACCALAUREATE ADVISING

 
There are two basic types of programs available to students who already have a bachelor's degree:

  • Traditional graduate study, where the student earns an advanced degree or degrees (Master of Arts or Master of Science, then a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.)). Many students who earn master's and doctoral degrees go on to teach and/or do research in colleges, universities or government.
  • A professional degree, which is usually offered at the master's level. Examples are the Master of Business Administration (M.B.A.), Master of Social Work (M.S.W.), and Master of Fine Arts (M.F.A.), offered in fields such as art, music, and creative writing.
