Five jobs that require a master's degree

After four years of exams, papers and projects in undergrad, you may feel so burnt-out you can't imagine taking one more class, let alone enrolling in a master's degree program. However, there are many great professions that require you to have a master's degree. Consider having a nice and relaxing summer vacation - and then get right back into the swing of things at graduate school.

1. Speech pathologist - According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), a master's degree is the standard education requirement for a speech pathologist. A speech pathologist helps clients and patients with disorders related to speech or voice, including disorders that people are born with or those caused by a traumatic event, such as a stroke.

2. Physical therapist - Physical therapists need a degree from an accredited physical therapy program, explains the BLS, and they help patients in a variety of ways. Perhaps the most common job of a physical therapist is to improve and restore body movement.

3. Geographer - A profession that does not necessarily require a master's, but can have increased monetary compensation and opportunity with one, a geographer studies the earth. The BLS explains that geographers can obtain a number of specialities and work as surveyors, photogrammetrists, cartographers and urban planners.

4. Engineer - There are many types of engineers including civil and biochemical engineers. However, most require a master's degree.
