Hello,

UG -

•An undergraduate degree refers to either a bachelors degree or an associates degree

•Students pursue bachelor degrees for four years at a college or university

•It takes two years to pursue an associates degree when people talk about going to college or university they are talking about getting an undergraduate degree

PG -

•Students get confused with the term postgraduate degree there actually isnt a real difference between the two

•Postgraduate is used interchangeably with graduate like a graduate degree PG refers to the range of higher degrees past the undergraduate degree

•This includes both masters degrees and Phds astudent can only pursue a graduate degree if they already have a bachelors degree

Hope it helpful.

Thankyou.
