Is work experience required for applying to masters programs abroad, or can I do a double masters without work experience?

No, work experience is not required for most master's programs abroad. You can apply directly after your bachelor's degree, especially for general master's courses in STEM, arts, or social sciences.

Work experience is typically needed only for professional programs like MBAs, which usually expect 2 - 5 years of experience. Specialized master's programs, including Master in Management (MiM), often accept applicants without work experience.

You can also pursue a double master's (two consecutive master's degrees) without work experience, as long as you meet the academic requirements for each program.
