MSc - definition of MSc in Encyclopedia (918 words)
Master of Education degrees are similar to MA, MS and MSc where the subject studied is education.
The awards for these are named after the subject, so a course in mathematics would earn a Master of Mathematics degree, abbreviated to MMath), or have a general title such as MSci (Master in Science at most universities but Master of Natural Sciences at Cambridge).
(MSc, MA) These can either be "taught" degrees, involving lectures, examination and a short dissertation, or "research" degrees (though the latter have largely been replaced by MPhil and MRes programmes, see below).
