In contrast to Austria, where the first degree is a Magister or a Diplom, the first degree in the UK is a Bachelor's. It can be either a B.A. (Bachelor of Arts) or a B.Sc. (Bachelor of Science). The Scottish 'ancient' universities award a Master's as the first degree; it is equivalent to a Bachelor's. Undergraduate courses are those leading to this degree. Postgraduate courses are all courses that come after the undergraduate, or first-degree, level.

Generally, students take courses at the appropriate level for the degree they are pursuing. For example, associate degree programs like those at Connecticut's community-technical colleges use courses from the freshmen and sophomore level (designated 100 and 200 level at many institutions).
