Most people think that masters programs like what you're taking is a step above a bachelor's degree. Most of the time, it is not.

As you said, you're cramming a few years of syllabus into 1 year. Even a 4 year degree is barely sufficient to cover the bases, so you're definitely losing out on a lot of important knowledge in your course. The course will have to be marketable, so it will filter for "industry needs" and teach you that. Nothing wrong with that per se, but its really just a glorified bootcamp.

There is a niche that master degrees fulfill, but that niche has nothing to do with actual knowledge/talent in the field. It really exists for bureaucratic reasons.
