for IT professionals, do you think having master's degree is more worth it than attaining a certification on specific IT field? I'm just asking because I am planning to take up a master's degree this coming semester.

master's degree is just adding an extra flavor to our IT career , what matters most is that, we should be skilled enough to survive the corporate environment

Hi, definitely master's degree is worthier than a certification on specific IT field. I am doing my master's and will be completed this year. Your pay will be more compared to now and most importantly you will learn more in the masters degree. My suggestion is go for the master's degree.

A masters degree is of much more importance as compared to a specific diploma or something. But if you have a diploma that is directly related to profession then it is a major plus point for example a java certified person in a software development organization.

In any field master degree is more worthy than a certification. I found it lately and now working for my certification
