Do I need to get a masters in marketing?
I am currently getting my bachelor's degree - my major is anthropology and my minor is psychology. I am interested in a career in marketing, marketing research mainly. Do I need to get my masters in marketing or will I be able to get a job with my bachelors, even though it is not in marketing; however, it does involve understanding humans? Thanks...

I'm currently studying for the GMAT, which is the entrance exam for getting into MBA/marketing programs.. and I can tell you from a liberal arts background (I have a BFA in graphic design), a MBA will -really- help you if you want to pursue a marketing career. Especially if you studied something that was non-business related, a MBA program will give you the core foundation classes you need, as well as other concentrations you want to go after (ie: finance, marketing). Otherwise I'm pretty sure i wouldn't be able to go after the jobs I've been eyeing. You probably should do some research, see if it's really want b/c it's a lot of money and time invested in it and go from there. Good luck!

Depending on what career you're interested in, a Masters degree could be worth the money. If you already have a career, look into tuition reimbursement through your employer. If you're looking into programs that will advance your skills as an employee, your company will value that as an investment. Generally speaking, a Masters degree usually equates to a higher salary and a higher 'level' of employment. "According to the U.S. Department of Labor, average weekly salary for a masters degree holder is $1,129, almost $200 more than a bachelors degree holder" Check out the link below for more info on master's degrees
