ENEB Master Thread

[armado]

It means that they're making it even more clear that these are professional master's degrees and not academic ones. Professional master's are also known as "terminal master's" because they are not designed to prepare students for PhD and other doctoral programs. Academic master's degrees prepare students to conduct research and write a scholarly thesis, in preparation for the research and writing required for a doctoral dissertation and defense.

In Spain, you must have an academic master's degree to apply to PhD or other doctoral programs. Therefore, the titulo propio or master propio degrees, or the newly renamed "permanent training master's degrees", are not considered equivalent to the official master's degrees. 

But, this is not the case in the USA. Here, a master's degree is a master's degree. Your MBA or other master's degree from ENEB/UI1 will not prevent you from applying to, and getting accepted into, doctoral programs in the United States. You may be made to take a research methods and/or a statistics course, but it won't necessarily bar you from being admitted.

Thanks so much
