ENEB New Master Thread

[huiwh1998]

Here is my current ECE course-by-course evaluation, and I wanted to ask for clarification.

Current Evaluation:

• Global Master (bundled) → 45 credits
  
• Three dual masters → 36 credits each
  
• Total = 153 credits
  
• All counted as bachelor-equivalents
  

What if I had done it differently?

• Instead of the Global Master, I could have taken my Global MBA individually, which includes:
  • MBA – Master of Business Administration
    
  • Master in Big Data and Business Intelligence
    
  • Master in Project Management
    
  • Diploma of Specialization in Innovation and Project Management
    
• Instead of the 3 dual masters, I could have taken 6 individual masters.
  

That would have been 9 separate masters at $129 each, totaling $1,161.
Costs I actually paid:

• Three dual masters → $349 each × 3 = $1,047
  
• Global Master → $649
  
• Total = $1,696
  

So in comparison, paying individually for 9 masters at $129 each would have cost $1,161, which is $535 less than what I actually paid for the bundled and dual programs.

Questions:

• Would I have gotten 9 U.S. bachelor-equivalents instead of 4?
  
• Would I have benefited from doing them individually, or would ECE still have counted overlapping courses and given roughly the same total credits?
  

I’m trying to figure out if paying for dual/bundled programs reduced my potential credit recognition.

I get what you are saying and indeed they counted the bundled degrees differently, you would have had more credits if you weren't bundled.

Here is an live example, I completed a dual masters BUT the degrees were not processed as such, they were two separate Masters.  Instead of getting like you got 36 credits for a dual degree I had 2 individual degrees, which I submitted to ECE, they came back with 30 credits EACH.  I think all individual Masters are treated at 30 credits each, in your case nothing you can do as yours were bundled.

I’m trying to understand how ECE handles multiple master’s programs when there are overlaps.

Let’s say instead of bundled/dual programs, I had completed 9 separate master’s diplomas. From what I’ve seen, ECE often evaluates each master’s at around 30 U.S. credits, so on paper that could add up to 270 credits.

Here’s my concern:
• When a U.S. school actually tries to use those credits for undergraduate/bachelor purposes, will they look at the transcripts, see all the overlapping courses (for example, Research Methods or Strategy repeated multiple times), and then not count those credits again?
• In other words, do the 270 credits really matter, or would they be reduced down just like my bundled programs, since the overlaps wouldn’t be recognized more than once?

Right now I have 153 credits from ECE, but I know many of those include duplicate/overlapping coursework.



Do overlapping courses across multiple master’s programs still “count” in transfer/credit recognition, or are they only recognized once?

Would love to hear from anyone who has submitted multiple similar master’s to ECE and then tried to transfer or actually use those credits in a U.S. university.

Back then, ENEB’s dual master was actually two separate programs, each with 60 ECTS. But now they’ve merged it into one combined program with 72 ECTS total. As for how U.S. schools see it, places like Walden are pretty chill and will probably accept it for their master’s. I don't think they even have a GPA requirement, so you're good with a bachelor's degree and all "S" grades. But I wouldn’t expect the same treatment from more selective or rigorous universities.

If you want a real bachelors, go with TESU. Someone I believe from the old ENEB Master Thread, has sent their ECE evaluation to TESU for their "second bachelors" for a BA LS degree, who has to complete 30-ish credits for graduation.

And yes, you will have 9 bachelor's degrees. As ridiculous as it may sound, I am pretty sure you do indeed have 9 bachelor's degrees if you have separated them. But I don't think it's gonna be easy with the recent dual masters bundle thing...
