Spot the Brit?
Not sure which other countries have 3y bachelor's degrees and will let you do a PhD without a master's degree and also have 3y doctorate degrees
Where do you need a Masters to attain a PhD? Honest question, I just never heard of it before.
My wife attained her MD/PhD from the University of Chicago/Pritzker and does not have a Masters. She's on the MD/PhD committee for her university and they do not require anything other than a BS in the field of study.
With that said, it probably isn't much of a stretch to just get a Masters in the way to a PhD.
Me? I'm depriving some poor village of its idiot. I have a BS and that's it.
In the EU it's usually like that. 3 years for a bachelor's, 2 years for a master's, only then you can start pursuing a phd.
I graduated in 2005, and back then we had a different system, where I did a single 5 year program for a computer science degree (engineering), that today is the equivalent of a master's (diplom engineer). I could have continued to go for a dedicated master's, another 2 years, but I got lazy.
In Germany you can officially start a phd program with a bachelor's, and I assume it's the same all over Europe, since the degrees are supposed to be compatible.
No one does it without a master's, and no prof will accept you into a phd program without one, but theoretically on paper it's not needed.
