UK Undergraduate Degrees In England, Wales and Northern Ireland, the majority of Honours degrees are 3 years in duration with specialisation from the outset

In Scotland, the majority of degrees are 4 years (Honours)

This is because Scottish degrees have lots of flexibility and choice of subjects to study in lower years, with specialisation by third year

Often this gives students the opportunity to sample several subjects before choosing in which to specialise

Ancient universities confer Master of Arts (MA) for undergraduate degrees in humanities and social sciences
