a master's degree is typically a good thing to have. my advice would be to decide what career you want to focus on and ask people in that field about it. a MBA is good if you want to get into business and dont have an undergrad degree in business. if you already have an undergrad degree in business than you would probably be better off going for a specialized masters.

Of course getting a masters degree will be beneficial. There's more and more careers that are requiring masters degree. I'm going to get my masters right after I finish my Bachelor's....in Psychology. You practically need one to do almost anything in Psychology. Even education...having a masters degree helps. Doesn't really matter what it is though....

you should definitley ask an advisor at the college institution sone questions. So far im not taking 2 of the required courses because some of my future job responsibilities & training cover the materials in those classes. They count because the training and responsibilities in certain occupations translate into education experience

I graduated last week with my master's degree in engineering. and i can expect to get a *minimum* salary of 60-65 K per year as an entry level engineer. If I get a job in a good company, the pay can be significantly more. Something like 70, 80 K for starters. So, yeah, Master's Degree pays
Since Masters degree is higher in terms of knowledge value as compared to bachelors degree, the course work will be difficult. Plus the job will be more intensive and will not be as easy as a bachelor's degree job. And hence, the pay will also be more.
So you need to decide whether you wana seek the extra knowledge, have that extra interest, want to pay the extra price and study the extra bit to get a better salary in the end!!

If you consider the letter 'm' to be a vowel I'd reconsider a Masters...or University outright!
