What is the duration of masters courses in Singapore and USA for a Master's?
22 Jul 2026 · Answered by Mahalakshmi K · 1 min read
Master's programs in Singapore typically last 12 to 24 months full-time, depending on the university and course. Some can be completed in one year, while others may take up to two years.
In the USA, most master's degrees require 1.5 to 2 years of full-time study (30 - 60 credit hours). While accelerated one-year options exist, standard programs usually take around two years.
Program duration is subject to change based on university and course structure.
