At the college level, two and four year degrees are just distinctions based on the amount of coursework taken.
Two year degrees, typically only granted by community colleges, are also called Associates Degrees. Following this degree, there are many options, including getting a job or transferring to a four-year university and getting that degree (a Bachelors Degree.)
Some two-year degree programs are vocational and lead to a specific career field. Yet it should be clear that a two-year associates degree is definitely less of an accomplishment than a four-year Bachelors.
In addition, a two-year degree is usually an associates degree, and not an accelerated bachelors, although these programs do exist.
A two-year associates degree is usually not granted to students at four-year universities who would have otherwise completed the equivalent classes had they been at a community college.

2 years.
(I couldnt resist).
Ok, here goes..., An Associates, or 2 year degree, has for historical reference always been a "vocational" degree inso much as it allowed you to enter a particular field to continue to "earn while you learn" your way to higher education, such as a 4-year, or Bachelors degree, signifying a level of mastery that incorporates a 'working' knowledge with a 'mastery' of that level in that field.
MBA's or Master's advanced degrees allow a Mastery of a subject that allows for one to start to "Direct" how the particular field could go, in whatever field of endeavor, designing programs and systems for AD's and BA's to utilize. PHD's are pure researchers and as in the medical fields, NEVER stop learning, hence the Doctor designation.
I hope you understood what I just typed, because I sure don't!

First of all, is the number of years you'll be studying.
Secondly, the number of core modules you'll be studying -- the longer the degree, the more core modules.
From my knowledge, a 4-year degree happens when you want to pursue a Bachelor degree with Honours.
