Once upon a time, a degree was a passport to a decent career. In 1940, only 5% of the American population had a degree. By 2011, that number had risen to 36%. Ten years later, 42% of the nation's adult population has some kind of degree - nearly 100 million Americans, according to the US Census Bureau.

Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts degrees have become essential issues in the job market. It often takes a master's degree to differentiate yourself from potential employers. About 13% of the adult population in the United States already has a master's degree – almost twice as many in the last 20 years.

While most cybersecurity job postings require at least a bachelor's degree, almost a quarter now require a master's degree. Obviously, a regular degree is enough in today's market to get a decent position. But if you want to compete for the best jobs and quickly launch yourself into a great career, a master's degree is the best option.

Admission requirements vary from a bachelor's degree in computer science or computer science to any degree, as long as the individual meets other qualifications, such as possessing appropriate cybersecurity certifications.
