Good afternoon, everyone! Now I am going to talk about ‘Undergraduate programs’ of the USA.

If you are thinking about pursuing a university degree in the US, you need to understand the difference between undergraduate and postgraduate programs.


In the US, undergraduate refers to students enrolled in university who are currently working toward a bachelor’s degree or similar certification. While these are usually students who have recently completed high school, it is also common for adults to begin an undergraduate degree at a later stage of life.
What is an undergraduate degree?
There are many different types of undergraduate degrees in the US , each with their own focus , duration, cost and curriculum. Grouping these degrees into the two most common categories can help differentiate them.
Associate’s degree: A two-year undergraduate degree
An associate’s degree can be completed in two years, enabling graduates to enter the workforce as soon as possible. As a result , these types of degrees often focus on developing job-specific skills and knowledge. Many are offered through community or technical colleges and students have the option to transfer to a four-year undergraduate program after completing the associate’s degree.
Bachelor’s degree: A four-year undergraduate degree
A bachelor’s degree ( sometimes just called a college degree ) at US universities and colleges typically takes four years to complete and is a popular choice for international students. While the undergraduate meaning can be different at each institution, bachelor’s degrees usually have an overall areas of area of focus, such as business or science with various subjects covering different fields related to the degree.
Undergraduate class sizes differ between each institution and even by department. Some large first-year seminar classes, for example, could have several hundred students in a lecture hall; specialized topics and labs could have 10 students or fewer. Typically, your classes at liberal arts institutions will be larger and more general during your first two years of study, then grow smaller and more specialized as you progress toward graduation.
