I've also heard of honorary degrees? Are they Master degree or Doctor degree? Well, that is a totally different matter. These are, for example, the Dlitt or Doctor of Letters (Doctor Litterarum- if you want it in the original Latin), the DSc or Doctor of Science, and the LLD or Doctor of Laws. These awards may be- in fact often are- awarded to people who have never been to university at all. They are very often in fact given people who have distinguished themselves in some field of non-academic activity outside. Thus the university may wish to honor a famous writer by giving him or her a Dlitt or a famous politician by giving him or her a LLD. Professor Stevenson, you have provided us with a detailed introduction to university education in Britain. Thank you for your time. My pleasure.
