Wie würdet ihr hier das Wort Magisterprüfung übersetzen? Ich denke an M.A. examination, da es hier um die Erlangung des Grads "Magister Artium" geht, aber ich bin nicht sicher, ob ich die wirklich gleichsetzen kann.
Ganz lieben Dank für Feedback,
Christine

Master's examination
Not necessarily an MA - it could be an MSc, MBA or something else at the same level.

MA examination
Some universties require a (smaller) dissertation and an examination, having the same weight as an MA with a (larger) dissertation without examination.

This examination could also be for an M-degree in another field, as answered by Armorel, but I guess it was for the Arts MA because of your other question.

MA
You could say "on being awarded my Master of Arts" but most people would say "on receiving my MA".

My own degree is a "Magister Artium" but, as a Scottish degree, it is not even an Honours one (it is called an "MA Ordinary" degree). It is like an English BA but the level is a bit higher. Of course, it can be completed at Honours level.
As I understand it, you have to have an honoiurs degree before being accepted for a Masters degree course.
