Where do Master's fit in with this? I know lots -- LOTS -- of people in various industries with a whole smattering of Master's degrees. A lot of them are MBAs, but plenty aren't. Conventional wisdom says that PhD's are for academia & research. I'd posit that an MA or MS is the new "university degree".
