Not sure if serious, but if I came off as being a jerk, that wasn't my intent. I would just lump Aviation Science in with a whole bunch of other fancy sounding degrees that aren't really anything more than glorified trade courses. And my personal opinion is that we all know how to fly, in one manner or another. Why get a degree that is just a review of what we already know? When I go back and get a Masters, my intent is to do something that is entirely unrelated to aviation, that will hopefully broaden my career horizons well beyond my aviation and engineering (school) background. I'm not sold on an MBA either, as I think those are skills I have just learned (and proven myself in) to a lesser extent and more informally on the job leading a division of 40+ Sailors. I've kind of hovered between econ and something related to foreign policy. The kinds of things that I really don't know 2 cents about beyond a general interest and a very limited amount of real life experience, but which I feel could sort of complete my personal "package" in terms of marketability (at least for the sorts of jobs I'm interested in well down the road). That is my thought process anyway. Take it for what it is, which is not much, since I don't have a Masters degree, and my job is basically a fraternity full of man children who on any given day would be fired on the spot for our office transgressions at any normal "real job"
