Hello Greetings

According to the New Education Policy (NEP) 2020, the structure and length of degree programs are being adjusted to promote holistic and multidisciplinary education


In the context of a 4-year BA Psychology graduation, the duration of the master's program may vary. NEP 2020 suggests that students who complete a 4-year undergraduate degree can pursue a 1-year master's program. However, this is not a rigid rule and may depend on the specific institution and program.


Here are some key points to consider:


- *Exit Options*: NEP 2020 provides exit options after completing 1, 2, or 3 years of undergraduate study, with corresponding certificates, diplomas, or degrees.

- *4-Year Undergraduate Degree*: Completing a 4-year undergraduate degree may provide a more comprehensive education and better prepare students for a 1-year master's program.

- *Master's Program Duration*: The duration of the master's program may vary depending on the institution and program. Some institutions may offer a 1-year master's program, while others may require a longer duration.


It's essential to note that these changes are part of a broader effort to reform India's education system, and specific details may evolve over time.

Have a great day

While it's possible that some universities might offer a 1-year Master's program in Psychology following a 4-year BA, this is not the typical structure; most Master's in Psychology programs are usually considered to be 2 years long even if your Bachelor's degree is 4 years.

Standard Master's duration:

Most universities worldwide consider a Master's degree in Psychology to be a 2-year program.

Specialization depth:

A 1-year Master's program may not provide the necessary depth of study and practical experience needed for advanced specialization within psychology.

Regulations and accreditation:

Specific regulations and accreditation bodies in your region may influence the length of a Master's program.

You don't need to think about this right now focus on your studies instead. this kind of things takes time so you can expect 2 years for your master degree.
