In science and engineering subjects, and MSc generally indicates a Master's that has been studied as a one year course after completing a BSc or BEng, while MEng indicates a course that goes straight thru to Master's in one go. Either way takes four years overall, the former being more focused and the latter broader.Hope this helps.EDIT: Should point out -the above assumes full time study. Many degrees can be studied part time, which obviously takes rather longer.glass.</blockquote>
