24% of hydrology-related positions require or prefer that candidates have a
master's degree.1
Occupations that typically require a master's degree are projected to grow at a
rate of 16.7% through 2026 - more than twice the rate of growth projected for
all occupations. 2
Number of annual hydrology/related job postings was over 49,000. 1
And employers are working harder than average to find these types of qualified
professionals. 1
About half of occupations in America that had annual median wages of $94,225 or
more in May 2017 (two and a half times the overall median) typically require a
master's, doctoral, or professional degree for entry 2
Tuition Assistance
56% of employers offered financial assistance for education to their employees
in 2019. 3
Benefits of a Masters
Master's degrees increase earning potential. In many cases, you can expect your
salary to increase by roughly 35%. 4
"Being online allows for professionals, who have already started their careers,
the flexibility to work and study. The result is that many water-sector
professionals get to know each other over the course of the degree, networking
with each other, and advise on future job prospects...This program is
recommended to anyone who is not only interested in the science of hydrology,
as rigorous as it is, but also how scientific knowledge informs regulations
that affect the economy, the environment, and fundamentally people's lives." -
