University studies can be subdivided into: undergraduate studies and postgraduate studies (the education of the graduate-level or beyond the Master's degree level). The British Master's diploma can usually be obtained upon completion of one yea of postgraduate studies. The postgraduate programs are divided into theoretical and research ones. Completion of the theoretical course results in getting either a diploma or a corresponding certificate or the Master's degree. Upon completion of the theoretical study a thesis is written. The research course allows students to carry out a research of their own, which as a rule is a component of a wider research project of the university itself. The final goal is getting the highest academic degree - the Doctor of Philosophy. The kinds of postgraduate degrees are the following:
