What's the Difference Between Bsc and Msci?
What is the difference between a BSc and an MSci degree? Both a BSc (bachelor of science) and an MSc (master of science) are higher education degrees awarded in scientific subjects. An MSc is a higher level of qualification and is often used as a stepping stone toward the acquisition of a doctorate.

Considering this, what is the difference between BSc and MSci?

Most universities now offer both BSc (Bachelor of Science) and MChem/MSci (Master of Chemistry/Science) degree programmes. In general, the additional year in an MChem/MSci course contains a greater quantity, and more advanced material, than in a BSc course.

Also, can you transfer from BSc to MSci? Yes, you can transfer from our BSc Healthcare Science (Audiology) to our MSci (visa regulations permitting). You will need to fill out a programme transfer request form available from our Faculty Student Office.

Correspondingly, what is a MSci qualification?

A MSci is an undergraduate Masters degree, meaning in a sense it's equivalent to a MSc (a postgraduate Masters degree) though you're guaranteed government funding.

Is an MSci equivalent to an MSc?

A US MS is generally two years compared to the UK MSc's one. So having an Msci is not exactly equivalent to an MSc. This is before you get to some of the more obscure things such as MRes which some UK students do. These are still broadly at Masters level but have different focuses to the course.
