In many cases, in the US, a college refers to a four year advanced education only, and an institution which does not have the accreditation to offer more than a bachelor’s degree. College may also be restricted by its modifiers. For example, a technical college may offer Associate of Arts degrees or certification in certain fields only. A junior college or community college also offers a variety of A.A. degrees and certification programs. Traditionally the term college applied to a part of a university. Large universities may be split into colleges or departments that offer different degrees. The University of California, Berkeley, for instance, has colleges of music, science, law and liberal arts, to name a few. Deans or heads of the college oversees each college, but the ability to grant degrees is through the overhead university. Most large universities also offer advanced degrees like PhDs and Master’s degrees. A four-year college, not attached to a university may only offer bachelor’s degrees.<br><b>References : </b><br>http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-the-difference-between-a-college-and-a-university.htm The difference between the words college and university depend very much upon where you live.
