==Undergraduate Master of Arts degree== {{Main|Master of Arts (Scotland)|Master of Arts (Oxbridge and Dublin)}} The ancient universities are distinctive in awarding the [[Magister Artium]]/Master of Arts (MA) as an undergraduate [[academic degree]]. This is commonly known as the '''Oxbridge MA''', '''Trinity MA''' (Dublin), or the '''Scottish MA'''. The ancient universities in Scotland confer the MA degree at graduation with honours and a final mark; in contrast, the ancient universities in England and Ireland award the MA purely after a period of good standing following graduation as [[Bachelor of Arts]], usually around three years. Because they award the MA as an undergraduate Arts degree, the ancient universities award differing titles for their postgraduate master's degrees in the Arts and Humanities, such as the taught Master of Letters ("MLitt (T)"). Some confusion can arise as to whether such degrees are taught degrees or the most established (and advanced) two-year research degrees, although this is often specified.
