A discussion revolves around pursuing a master's degree in physics in Spain, with a focus on the program's duration. It is clarified that while the basic physics degree in Spain typically takes four years, many master's programs only last one year. Participants note that the standard master's duration is usually two years elsewhere, suggesting that it is possible to find two-year programs in Spain with further research. Additionally, one participant expresses interest in applying for a physics master's despite having a finance background, highlighting their strong performance in an undergraduate physics course and the potential for a good recommendation. The conversation also touches on the search for appropriate schools, particularly in Barcelona.
