    Bachelor to Master's degree
    Hello EB,
    I've received my Bachelor's degree in English Literature, now I wonder what are my choices for Master's degree, Can I study other science and subjects 'e.g Computer Networking' or I have to just finish my English related fields. Now I work as an IT and love to study Computer Networking for my Master's degree.
    Thanks.

    You can get a Master's in any field that you want, but you may have to take extra classes to meet the entance requirements, so I would check the entrance requirements for the degree you are interested in at the College or University that you plan on attending.

    pready is correct -- you can get a master's in any field, but may have to take undergrad classes in order to complete entrance requirements. For instance, I have a bachelor's in education and got a master's in counseling psych. Before I could take certain master's-level courses, I had to complete undergrad requirements such as Abnormal Psych and Theories of Personality.

    I had entered a master's program with the stipulation that I complete the two undergrad courses during the first year. I took both of them as correspondence courses (online courses were not yet popular). I did not have the time to drive to a different college and sit in on undergrad classes each day, and correspondence courses could be done at home in my spare time.
