Bachelor's master's doctorate system explained

The bachelor's master's doctorate system (in France réforme licence-master-doctorat or réforme LMD) is a European educational system^[1] designed by the Bologna Process.^[2] Its purpose is to standardize the educational system at European universities in order to harmonize study norms in terms of content, curriculum, syllabus, and course credits. As a result of this reform, European universities will offer the following three degree levels, but the names will vary from country to country: bachelor's, master's, and doctoral (PhD) degrees^[3]
