Danish to English translations [PRO]
Social Sciences - Education / Pedagogy / Graduate titles | | Danish term or phrase: mag.art. | "Hun er mag.art. i litteraturvidenskab ..."
mag.art. = magister artium, which logically speaking is Master of Arts. But then what is the difference between this and cand.mag.?
Gyldendals Røde gives the same translation for both. |

Reference information:
University level second stage: Kandidatgrad/Candidatus (cand.+ field of study, in English: usually MA or MSc + field), Magistergrad (Mag.Art.):
The Candidatus Degree (Master's Degree) can be obtained at universities and other specialized research-based institutions of higher education. In most fields of study admission requires a Bachelor's Degree in the same field of study. The degree is normally awarded after a total of 5 years of study: the Bachelor's Degree (3 years) and a 2-year Candidatus programme with the exceptions of Medicine (3 years) and Veterinary Medicine (2 1/2 years). Independent research activities are an important part of the Candidatus programme. The speciale/candidatus thesis is a major requirement and requires six months to one year's full-time study. The Magister Artium (rare) is awarded on completion of three years' research-oriented study after the Bachelor's Degree and public defence of a thesis in certain fields of the Humanities.
