jtbell said:At most four-year colleges in the U.S., a Master's will get you an instructor-level position. For an assistant professor position you need a Ph.D., or be about to finish one. And in that case you need to finish the Ph.D. pretty soon or you'll have to leave.
Homer Simpson said:I don't know much about american schools, but I don't see many job offers around for 3 year associate degrees in Canada.
