Can someone explain to me the difference between a masters, doctorate, and bachelors degree?

and a undergraduate minor and major. What does all of this mean?



An undergraduate degree is the first degree you will get at university. They are usually 3 or 4 year degrees and are called bachelors degrees. Your major and minor are the areas of study that you are interested. If your majoring in biology, the majority of the courses you need to take are biology related, etc.





Masters degrees and doctorate degrees are graduate degrees and come after your bachelors degree. If you wish to pursue further education after your bachelors degrees, you get your masters and then finally your doctorate (PhD)
