Distance Teaching Search Teachers.Net Advanced Quick Links: Set Post: Master's plus 30 and Ph.D Posted by AL on 6/26/08 I'm about at the end of Master's program. I wanted to get a Ph.D or Master's plus 30 but I've been kind of afraid because I heard horror stories about people who get those degrees sometimes have trouble getting jobs because: 1. It's more expensive to hire them; it's cheaper to hire someone with just a Master's that can do the same job more than sufficiently. 2. A lot of job opportunities that come with getting a Ph.D can also come with just a Master's, except being a college professor (but then again, it seems like 80% of the professors that I had, all had Master's degrees I've heard a whole host of things like this. So, I'm just wondering before I decide. I mean hey, if getting a Master's plus 30 or Ph.D = more trouble than it's worth, then I'll just keep just a Master's. But I just was thinking about getting one just to have one, and I could be the first in my family to have a Ph.D or so.
