Consecutive Master
Definition
A consecutive Master's program builds on a subject-related Bachelor's degree in terms of content. It deepens and specializes the knowledge acquired in the Bachelor's. Consecutive Master's programs usually last 2-4 semesters (60-120 ECTS) and can be started directly after completing a Bachelor's degree.
Example: "The consecutive Master's builds directly on her business administration Bachelor's."
