4 Schools That Offer Online Master’s Degree Courses in the Philippines

Jun 05, 2020

By : Kimberly Manalang

Enter a college or university, earn a degree, find a job, or start your own business —this is the path that most people expect us to take. But life is not a one-way road and we can take our own twists and turns if we want and need to. Some might have to get a job first before graduating from college. Some might not finish college at all but still, find a way in life. Others might want to go back to studying while fulfilling the duties that their job requires.

Going back to school to pursue a master’s degree has its own pros and cons. Being a master’s degree holder can give you more in-depth knowledge of your chosen field and increase your chances of getting a better and higher-paying job. At the same time, it can also be challenging because it gives additional responsibility for managing your finances and time. 

What if you can actually study your lessons anytime and anywhere without having to sit in the classroom for hours? Well, thanks to the wonders of technology, it is possible to earn your master’s degree through online education ! With a stable internet connection and a comfortable place to study, you can just access your lectures online and move at your own pace. This is helpful for those who want to pursue a postgraduate degree while working as employees. whether in the Philippines or abroad. The best part is it requires fewer expenses for transportation and less time needed for traveling to campus! 

Which among these 4 local schools offering an Online Master’s Degree is perfect for you?

Dreaming of being a master’s degree holder? Here are some schools that offer online master’s degree programs in the Philippines.

AMA University Online Education

AMA University Online Education is the first full online education program in the Philippines. Through this program, anyone who wishes to get a postgraduate degree such as employed individuals, working students, OFWs, international students, and people with disabilities can study in the comforts of their home. In this program, learning materials such as supplementary videos, course modules, presentations, and exams can be accessed on their website with just a few clicks. Students can also participate in real-time online classes through the Virtual Classroom. Advance notice is given for these sessions, but in case you can’t attend a real-time session, you can still access the recordings through your account!

Looking to take your engineering knowledge a step higher? Mapúa University welcomes students who aspire to get a master’s degree online through Mapúa Digital Academics.

Just take note that the University requires at least three face-to-face sessions for students who live in the Philippines, in compliance with the guidelines given by the Philippine Commission on Higher Education (CHED). Face-to-face sessions for those residing abroad can be arranged on a case-to-case basis.

Polytechnic University of the Philippines Open University System

The Polytechnic University of the Philippines Open University System (PUP OUS) is another option for students who want to pursue a master’s degree outside the traditional classroom setup.
