[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Outside of law and medicine which jobs require a masters? I think there are far more jobs that Don’t require a masters than ones that do ?[/quote]

Lots of DC area “policy” jobs do.

Don’t most teachers have a master’s now?[/quote]

Yeah, teachers get a silly Masters in Education that even teachers think is stupid...but it's an automatic pay bump, so why not.

If I recall the govt also has automatic pay bumps for advanced degrees and there was a scandal about people getting mail-order advanced degrees. [/quote]

Let’s make sure we don’t pass up an opportunity to insult teachers!

Regarding teaching: yes, many districts require a masters now. And, despite what the PP says, many of us have different degrees. My neighbor has Library Science, the teacher across the hall has a masters in English Literature (as do I). The science teachers upstairs have masters (and even 2 PhDs) in their content area: Chem, Physics, etc.

So, no… not all “silly” education degrees. But points for being insulting.[/quote]

56% of HS teachers have a Masters or higher. A Masters in Education is by far the most popular masters degree.
