In the University of London (one of my own universities) 60% will get you a Pass and no more! 65% is the requirement for a Merit.
In Finland at least, there are two kinds at of basic university degrees: the lower and the upper unversity degrees. The lower ones are considered equivalent to a Bachelor's degree, and the upper ones to a Master's degree. All students are admitted to study for the upper degree, and only a minority ever take the lower one. Thus, in Finland, Master's is not considered a graduate degree. I have a faint recollection that the other Fenno-Scandic countries have similar systems. (Of course, the proposed EU-wide degree harmonization effort will change this in the future.)
The defined optimal study time for the lower degree is three years after admittance, and for the upper degree, five years after admittance (including any lower degree taken during this time). However, since Finnish university studies are very liberal as to when and how much to study, study times vary a lot; an upper degree after three years or after eight years is not unheard-of.
In Finland, the first post-graduate degree is called a Licentiate degree (generally one to three years after admittance to post-graduate studies, i.e., after Master's).

Wow, is that embarrassing! Masters not Master’s!
It might be interesting to add a section about the origin of the term "Master's degree". I have heard the following, but have little solid evidence for it; does anyone think it's worth investigating further?
The story I've heard is that the term originated in the middle ages in the way technical training was done in guilds. Tradesmen began as apprentices, studying under a master. After a certain amount of training, they were able to work without supervision as a journeyman, and would travel around seeking work. Before an experienced journeyman could establish his own workshop, he would have to prove mastery of the craft, by being examined by guild masters and producing a masterpiece.
One reference that supports this story is at http://www.sspx.ca/Angelus/2000_October/The_Guilds.htm

I'm curious about an earlier version of the US section on master's degrees which was titled "professional master's". Is there a differentiation in Europe between a professional degree and something else? Between my wife and myself we have two master's and a doctorate, and we're not aware of such a differntiation in the US. If this does exist in Europe, perhaps there should be some mention in the US section about why, or if, it does not exist on this side of the Atlantic.

I really haven't heard the term "Professional Master's Degree" used in the areas I've been in (or my wife). I have an MPH (as well as an MD), my wife has an MS... the MPH can be a terminal degree or it can be the first step towards a PhD in Public Health or a DrPH... Doctor of Public Health (the former being more academically oriented... more likely to be for someone who plans to teach). I wonder if the terms "terminal degree" and "professional Master's degree" might be used interchangeably. In any case, I believe that they're just informal descriptive terms here in the U.S.

Yes, "terminal master's degree" and "professional master's degree" can be used interchangeably (although, not all professional master's degrees are terminal ones). The U.S. Department of State uses the term professional master's degree to describe a variety of terminal master's programs that are designed to train people for specific professions (MBA, Master of Library Science, Master of Architecture, etc).

This article says that M.Sci. degrees are generally less prestigious than M.Sc. degrees. This is no longer the case.
If one were to sit a B.Sc. and an M.Sc. separately, then they could overlap much of their final year of the B.Sc. with the M.Sc., reducing the workload significantly. Whereas, when studying for an M.Sci., all four years are planned to create clear distinction between the courses taken in each year. Also, both the M.Sci. and M.Sc. require substantial research projects, “the dissertation,” of the same standard.
Please edit this article to reflect the new rules introduced by the E.U. around undergraduates masters courses in the U.K.
I have studied at UCL and I know many people who completed MSci or MSc degrees at UCL and other colleges of the University of London.
It is basically safe to say that the first 3 years of the MSci degree are shared with the BSc degree with the only exception that the MSci students take further taught courses in the third year while the BSc students do their dissertations instead.
In the fourth year the MSci students usually sit in the same courses as the MSc students, take the same exams and do the same kind of dissertation projects. However, there are often differences in the rules which govern the choice of courses offered to students. Many courses done by MSc students cannot be taken by MSci students because they have done it in their first three years. This way the MSci track allows covering more content. Taking in account that additional content was covered instead of the BSc dissertation project, the MSci system certainly scores some points against the MSc system in this particular respect.
Another aspect is that the MSc degrees are often more specialised than the MSci degrees: e.g. at UCL there are courses like “MSc in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning”, “MSc in Data Communications, Networks and Distributed Systems” etc., but “MSci in Computer Science”. Whether a narrow specialisation is generally a good thing at this educational level can be argued about and can probably be seen differently in different contexts.
In conclusion, it is clearly misleading to claim that MSc degrees are considered “better” than the MSci degrees. It does not reflect the contents of the degree courses, nor does it reflect the public opinion. However, such a statement is highly discriminating against the MSci graduates. For these reasons I have taken that statement out of the article.
MSci degrees are indeed BSc (Hons), but with an additional compulsory Foundation year (now 1st Year, previously an optional "catch up" year for those without A-Levels). The weighting remains identical to a BSc (Hons). MSci should not redirect here, but rather to BSc or perhaps a new MSci page. 67th Tigers (talk) 23:46, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-06-11T23:46:00.000Z","author":"67th Tigers","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-67th_Tigers-2008-06-11T23:46:00.000Z-M.Sci._or_M.Sc.?","replies":["c-Timrollpickering-2008-06-12T00:22:00.000Z-67th_Tigers-2008-06-11T23:46:00.000Z"]}}-->
Indeed, and as yet another UC graduate with an MSci, now finishing off a doctorate, it certainly was the case outlined above. Everyone enrolled onto a UC physics/astro course registers as an MSci, unless they really don't want to. If they are seen to be a little shaky, or want to leave earlier than four years, they get transferred to a BSc after the first or second year. The final two years are when there is a differentiation between BSc and MSci as for year three the MSci students take additional taught courses where the BSc students do their final year project. The taught modules in the final two years are drawn from the BSc pool of modules in the penultimate year and the BSc and MSc modules in the final year (along with the extended final project). So far as getting funding for postgraduate study afterwards is concerned, a higher pass is required at MSci level (2:1) than MSc level (2:2) for research council funding to be given. This is stated quite clearly in Science and Technology Facility Council rules, so I'll have a look there and see if I can dredge up a citation. --MilleauRekiir (talk) 00:00, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-07-11T00:00:00.000Z","author":"PhilipStobbart","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-PhilipStobbart-2008-07-11T00:00:00.000Z-M.Sci._or_M.Sc.?","replies":["c-131.111.245.195-2009-02-08T18:32:00.000Z-PhilipStobbart-2008-07-11T00:00:00.000Z"],"displayName":"MilleauRekiir"}}-->

The following is proving controversial [5]:
Firstly it's coming at the end of a sentance about admission to a master's programme so I'm not sure it's even in the right place.
Secondly this is one of the areas where precisely what holding an academic degree means can be confusing. Traditionally an academic degree was a rank and one was no more a Bachelor & Master in the same faculty than a solider can be both a Corporal and Seargant simultaneously. So a programme designed to take someone from undergraduate entry to master's degree directly is not a problem in these circumstances (and indeed parallels many European degree systems such as the diplom where a single programme covers what we'd think of as both bachelor's and master's).
But what confuses things is that in this day and age students, graduates, society and many a university seem to regard degrees as qualifications in and of their own right. This can get very confusing when the programme is combined (though it's far from the only one - there are Bachelor's programmes, usually part time, that are divided into Certificate of Higher Education, Diploma of HE and degree levels each corresponding to the equivalent of a full year's study) but generally if the programme meets the requirements for a Master's degree (i.e. c180 Level M CATS points) then it is considered in some quarters to be on a similar level.
I'm not sure who is doing the formal considering as there are many cases of a year's intake of PhD students including people with a Bachelor's + Master's, a four year Master's and just a good Bachelor's, and this is one of the few areas where you could consider "academic status". Taking it to the wider level of employers just gets even murkier.

I've removed the following:
1- all education levels "vary significantly in length and scope", so this is a meaningless point 2- I don't see why there would be any assumption that obtaining a master's automatically gives one a bachelor's degree. Again, meaningless since it addresses a non-issue 3- without citation, the professed inferiority of a master's degree without a bachelor's is OR and opinion. Also, weasel wording "not necessarily" makes this a meaningless point also.

Oh Darn! I just lost my previous verbose version by hitting the back button by accident. Well here it is in short. I see what you mean in terms of SYNTH. Again, though, I only feel as though it's leaning towards a SYNT. Let me explain why : That’s because, I believe, we need some reliable sources. To answer your question : it is necessary to cite a reliable source even for minor points. These minor points may later on, such as I believe is the case for the MS (disambiguation) page and this abbreviation MS, become a key “verifiable source” to substantiate the inclusion not only within it's article but other articles. Per WP:V, we need to make it easy for people to find verify the information. A good citation is usually sufficient. If not for this reasons, then it should be done to avoid any possible conflict of Original Research. Let's take our present dilemma. I believe you are asking me to correlate approximately 3 points of information for 1 sentence. Many sources of information!
First we need to infer through the statement “Master of Science (MS)” that :
Now I need to try and understand all of this information and/or essentially come to a conclusion (WP:SYNTH) or Synthesis. This is how I would synthesis all the information (most likely creating a syllogism) and violating wikipedia's policies
conclusion "Master of Science" can be followed by the term "(MS)".(google link, with the annotation: In these circumstances, it is generally considered an accronym or an abbrev. which is used on some .edu websites.)
I have made a start at reorganizing the sentences into more coherent themes. Some more section headings might be useful, but even without headings there are some distinct themes in the article that need to be better developed as themes:
One theme not here:
Cost has several components, primarily enrollment fees and lost income potential and seniority and work experience while in school.

I completed an undergraduate four year masters (MNeurosci)- no batchelors degree was issued after three years and none was available. The article defines a masters specifically as a postgrad degree.

It is a "Master's Degree" because it is conferred to the recipient by a master. Similar to an associate's degree. It is not the same as the "Masters Tournament" in golf, which is a tournament of masters. A master's degree is not a degree of masters. This is a subtle distinction that can be difficult to wrap one's mind around.

I've deleted Architecture from the Italian degrees that use the old 5 year system. Architecture faculties in Italy have adopted the 3+2 scheme, offering both the Laurea Triennale (3 year, Bachelor's equivalent) and Laurea Magistrale (2 extra years, Master's equivalent). There is still one course with the old 5 year system in Ingegneria Edile / Architettura but it is to be considered an exception.

The page for doctor says that doctor is latin for "teacher". This page says that master is latin for "teacher". Were these words exact synonyms in latin? I doubt it.
