    Greetings,

    The higher degree is the MED degree. It is the most appealing as
    it relates to school districts. Are you more interested in
    pursuing administration in Education? Then go after the MEd. It
    will open opportunities to teach collegiately, but more than
    that "Go after your Dreams!"
