AzKaz Posted March 21, 2018 Posted March 21, 2018 Talking with me mates the other day and one of them was sure his degree was the longest (he's studying to be a doctor). His degree, when he graduates, will read MB BCh BAO (NUI) LRCPI LRCSI. That got me thinking, what is the longest academic degree postnominals out there? P.S. Just for fun, I searched for longer degree titles (including associateships and diplomas awarded by specific universities e.g. DIC, AICSM, ARCS, ARSM, ACGI (from Imperial), AKC (from KCL)) None of these, even combined with a regular degree from these unis, appear to be longer than my friends.
lemma Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 (edited) In my family, we have a competition to see who can accumulate the most letters after their name. Said competition is ongoing. I think my Dad is leading the pack with his BSci (Hons) MBA, with my sister just behind at BA LLB (Hons). If I complete everything I've started, I think the most I would be is BS AMusA PhD CFA. I got the AMusA when I was 15, but it has been a very slow burn since then (one letter every five years!). But yes, medical doctors seem to gather a lot of certifications, probably because of the way the colleges of medical fellows work. Edited March 22, 2018 by lemma
