among the experts
I essentialy agree with Brieuc, but, if this is not a Master's degree, it can lead to confusion, because "Master" has a very precise sense in Education. So, if you want something more general, I would go for something along the lines of "obtained a place among the experts of first class". It depends on the kind of diploma. If it is a Master's degree diploma, masters would be the best option.

between/among/ masters
Within this context, a "master"of the subject (in this case, the natural sciences, I assume).

"among masters" would probably be more idiomatic.

It refers to a degree program that leads to the degree of Bachelor in Arts (Moderatorship) (B.A. with honors) where two subjects are studied concurrently according to one of two distinct patterns as set out below
Therefore the answer is "among the moderators"
