What is an undergraduate degree?
Undergraduate, or Bachelor’s degrees, are the first level of degree in Higher Education. After you graduate from an undergraduate degree (a Level 6 qualification), you may continue on to postgraduate study (a Level 7 qualification), such as a Master’s degree. Undergraduate degrees usually take three years full-time, often with the option of an additional placement year.
Different types of undergraduate degree qualifications
The most common types of undergraduate or first degrees are Bachelor of Arts (BA) and Bachelor of Science (BSc), but there are others such as Bachelor of Education (BEd), Bachelor of Engineering (BEng), Bachelor of Laws (LLB) and Bachelor of Music (BMus).
There are also integrated Master’s degrees, which combine undergraduate study with postgraduate study, such as MSci or MEng.
