Master's Degrees Are Held By Almost 10 Million Americans
Master's degrees are held by almost 10 million Americans or about 8 percent of the population. A substantial rise in the number of people who have a Master's degree has occurred since 2002. Back in the day, undergraduate education was sufficient for a job, but that's no longer the case. A Master's degree is required for a variety of professions, according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. From 2012 to 2022, the proportion of such degrees has risen by 18%.
