Can a 2 yrs diploma course take up masterals?

[lm723]

I am in the IT field, and baka may nakaka alam nang sagot dito.
Balak ko sana mag masters degree, but pwede ba ung 2 years diploma course lang? Or dapat degree holder (4yrs) lang ang pwede mag masterals?

thanks

afaik, you need to have an undergrad degree to take up Masters. Wala pa akong naririnig na master's program na ang requirement nila ay non-undergrad degree.

btw masters degree ang tawag hindi masteral. no such thing as masteral. Cheers!

undergrad degree -> ibig kong sabihin bachelor's degree.

No. You need a Bachelor's Degree to qualify.

I agree with HIFI: you need a bachelor's degree if you want to take up a Masters Degree.

However, IMO schools should give some sort of consideration for people who have not finished their bachelors yet have enough knowledge and professional exposure through years of experience, self-improvement and trainings. I personally know four people who did not finish their bachelors degree but might easily trump persons who have a bachelor's degree on their chosen field of experience anytime of day.

Maybe in the future, schools can give some sort of qualifying exam to folks who have tons of experience and practical knowledge but do not have BA or BS under their belt.

First, what's your diploma course?

Second, what's your level of experience already?

Some schools like Ateneo can consider you IF you have sufficient experience already (like you are a Sr. Manager and above) or an entrepreneur.

Else, you might want to consider completing a baccalaureate program first rather than take a masteral degree.
