have significant ROI in terms of earnings or opportunities? Masters degrees in the liberal arts, fine arts, and social sciences all seem (on average) to be money losers. Masters degrees in things like public policy probably open some doors for people, but even then, I would think that's only true for the top schools. Masters degrees in engineering certainly can be helpful, but I still think it's case-by-case depending on career path. I'm struggling to think of many masters degrees that are, as a general rule, ROI positive.
