    Master is just the short form for "Master of Arts" or "Master of
    Fine Arts". I got my MA degree after I spent 7 full years at the
    Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich Germany. Compared to the
    "american way" of finishing everything in the shortest time
    possible, the "old" European way of learning everything related to a
    field from scratch up to master level, it seems very long. Another
    way of getting a "Master" degree would be to work as an apprentice
    for 4 years and after that go to the Masterschool for another 3
    years. This way is the more practice oriented arts and crafts
    approach whereas the first way I described is more the Fine Art
    approach.
