CEU offers a broad range of Master's degree programs.
One-year Master's degree programs
One-year Master's degree programs at CEU typically run for ten months, admitting students who have a four-year Bachelor's degree. They include an orientation session, two 12-week semesters, and a two-month Spring Session where students prepare their thesis or research.
