It depends on what you want to do. If you are going into the world of anything associated w academia or research, then generally speaking, a master's or 1-2 PhDs wouldn't be unheard of. You tend to be looked down on as a plebian w a bachelor's degree in those fields. They also are usually almost entirely grant funded which are more likely to be awarded to someone w a PhD than a master's than a bachelor's and so forth (grants do also dry up in bad economies). Private sector usually doesn't give a shit about degrees so long as u produce results (And continue to do so). There are some exceptions but that is the advice I was given by someone much more successful than I and it has pretty much played true from my experiences. I can't see any application for what you mentioned aside from research atm. s So if that is what you are pursuing a career in, bite the bullet n get a PhD. If you are not pursuing grad school then I would look elsewhere for the long run. The job economy for degreed individuals really hasn't recovered that much for entry level college grads in the science field (It never was great from all the med school, pharmacy school, dental school, etc. dropouts). So don't discount it if you already have your foot in the door. If nothing else, it could be steady income while you network and look elsewhere. Do you have a LinkedIn account set up yet?
