Some of the most promising predictions for future jobs over the next 10 years by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics include psychology-related jobs such as counselors, therapists, and substance abuse professionals, and those with master's degrees are considered the best qualified for these positions.
However, there's even better news for those with master's degrees employed in Nevada - these individuals are some of the highest paid mental health professionals in the country. Mental health counselors in Nevada in 2008 earned a mean salary of $52,780, the second highest salary for these professionals in the nation.
Elder care, another area where those with master's degrees are finding increasing job opportunities, has become increasingly valuable in Nevada, where during the 1990s, Las Vegas topped U.S. cities for a net migration of people aged 65 and over. Specialized counseling and therapy services geared to this age group continues to experience career expansion and growth.
One reason for the increased job prospects for those with master's degrees is the knowledge of psychological principles, theory, and empirical research results taught in master's programs. The ability to apply this psychological knowledge to the challenges facing Nevada remains a highly valued skill.
