What is the difference between a working graduate student and a full-time graduate student? Lin Chen accompanies you to graduate school
Part-time graduate students are a form of education that is studied in their spare time and can juggle work and study.
On-the-job master's degree: There are two main ways to apply for the examination, equivalent and part-time graduate students. Applicants with the same academic strength can apply for the junior college or above, and those with undergraduate degrees can take the master's examination.
It is a type of postgraduate education in the national plan for semi-part-time study as an in-service person, and the trainees can spend part of their time working and part of the time studying, which provides great convenience for the time-stressed working people, and the certificate obtained is recognized by the state.
Full-time master's degree: Classes are required from Monday to Friday in school, full-time full-time study. Incumbents are more suitable for applying for on-the-job graduate students.
The application requirements are university undergraduates, graduates of higher vocational colleges and universities recognized by the state, graduates of ordinary colleges and universities, graduates of adult college entrance examinations, self-study examinations of higher education, graduates of party school correspondence, equivalent degrees, master's degrees or doctoral degrees. The entry requirements for part-time graduate students are the same as for full-time studies.
However, due to the traditional impression of "low level" of working graduate students in society, part-time graduate students in China have yet to be recognized by the public.
Many students struggle with full-time and part-time work mainly because of the validity of their diplomas.
Regarding the validity of "part-time" graduation certificates, there are still many doubts in society. However, national education is developing, and the national master's degree unified examination enrollment, the same examination, the same line, the same training, the same quality, the same evaluation, the same certificate (but the graduation certificate will indicate full-time or part-time).
That is, the law stipulates that the academic degree certificates of full-time and part-time graduate students have the same legal status and the same effect. At the same time, the dissertations of part-time graduate students will also be included in the scope of sampling, which also shows that the state attaches great importance to the quality of education of graduate students, and the threshold for on-the-job graduate students is getting higher and higher.
Here, the part-time ordinary graduate students recruited by the state are different from the traditional on-the-job graduate students (with the same academic strength and master's degree, etc.) of the non-unified recruitment, and the part-time can be said to be a "re-development" and "re-standardization" stage of the on-the-job graduate students, and the quality of education is very high than that of the previous on-the-job graduate students.
Participate in the national examination, so the admission standards for part-time graduate students and full-time graduate students are the same, and the era of working graduate students who want to spend money to get academic qualifications has passed, and it also helps the overall improvement of the quality of the entire graduate education.
But in any way, since it is a national unified selection examination, can be admitted to a famous school, and now the selection threshold of famous schools is getting higher and higher, being able to successfully enroll is also the embodiment of your ability, if you want to meet your dream of a famous school, you can put down the trend of the public and do what you think is right, and the promotion of academic qualifications is not only that one certificate, but the promotion and development of your entire person in all aspects, entering a new educational class.
I hope the above answers can help you, and I wish you a smooth preparation and admission to the graduate school of your ideal university!
