  • A professional Master's degree. It is conferred far more widely in the Commonwealth of Nations than in the US. Abbreviations include: MASc, MAppSc, MApplSc, M.A. Sc. and MAS. "MASc" degrees are generally conferred in Commonwealth of Nations for engineering-related studies more academic than those required for the Master of Engineering (MEng). MASc degrees requires coursework and a thesis, with the thesis being the major component, whereas a Master of Engineering requires coursework and a project, with the coursework being the major component. "MAppSc" and "MApplSc" degrees are conferred in Australia and New Zealand for a wider variety of professional studies, to include practitioner fields outside of engineering. "MAS" is conferred in at least two US universities in the more expansive manner similar to Australia and New Zealand.
