COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES IN THE USA
1. Young people in the USA get higher education in colleges and universities. Students choose major subject and make many courses in this subject.
After four years of study students get the degrees of Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.), Bachelor of Philosophy (B. Phil.) or Bachelor of Arts (B.A., if they study Greek or Latin). After a year or two of further study they get a masters degree. If they go on in their study and research, they will get a still higher degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Ph. D.).
3. Higher education trains people to become teachers, engineers or to other professional work.
4. College students often continue their study at universities. Not all the students get grants. The minimum period of study is two years (in this case they dont get the degree of Ph. D.), three or even four years.
5. Many cities have colleges and universities that hold evening classis as well as daytime classes. People who work in the daytime can get higher education attending evening classes.
