Arts libérauxLes sept arts libéraux sont une grande part de la matière de l'enseignement concernant les lettres latines et les sciences des écoles de second niveau de l'Antiquité, qui se poursuit sous diverses formes au Moyen Âge. Ce corpus d'enseignement est notamment généralisé en Europe occidentale médiévale par l'œuvre d'Alcuin, maître précepteur de la famille de Charlemagne et savant écolâtre responsable des réformes scolaires supérieures de l'Empire carolingien, durant la période dite de la Renaissance carolingienne.
Doctor of EngineeringThe Doctor of Engineering (or engineering doctorate) (abbreviated DEng or EngD) is a professional degree awarded in engineering and applied science. An EngD is a terminal degree similar to a PhD in engineering but applicable more in industry rather than in academia. The degree is usually aimed toward working professionals. The DEng/EngD along with the PhD represents the highest academic qualification in engineering, and the successful completion of either in engineering is generally required to gain employment as a full-time, tenure-track university professor or postdoctoral researcher in the field.
Professional degreeA professional degree, formerly known in the US as a first professional degree, is a degree that prepares someone to work in a particular profession, practice, or industry sector often meeting the academic requirements for licensure or accreditation. Professional degrees may be either graduate or undergraduate entry, depending on the profession concerned and the country, and may be classified as bachelor's, master's, or doctoral degrees.
Engineer's degreeAn engineer's degree is an advanced academic degree in engineering which is conferred in Europe, some countries of Latin America, North Africa and a few institutions in the United States. The degree may require a thesis but always requires a non-abstract project. Through the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB), Engineers Canada accredits Canadian undergraduate engineering programs that meet the standards of the profession.
