I am playing my second favourite game this evening (after the Rightmove game) of looking all the different Masters degrees on FindaMasters. Some of them sound so interesting.

Public policy analysis

I’m a career civil servant (my Bachelors was the slightly less useful Biochemistry ...but I use parts of that also).

Forensic Archaeology
I'm considering doing this! Was it worth it? Did it lead to a career in forensic archaeology?

@MerlinsBeard87 where did you study and was it worthwhile? I looked at this a couple of years ago and thought it sounded interesting!

Risk, Disaster and Resilience - it was emergency planning, but also much wider than that. Loved it

Just finished an Ecology MSc, which I loved but it only scratched the surface of a huge subject. Particularly enjoyed the GIS aspect and am half tempted to do another course in GIS and remote sensing, especially as I am currently unemployed and don't have anything better to do!

I have two:

Children's Literature
Educational Policy

Now doing a PhD in History. (Not as mad as it sounds, because my previous theses were on historical literature and policies...)

MBA. Hard to do while working full-time but really enjoyed it!

@Queenelsarules ... I didn’t @ you... but I asked previously and I’d really love to know...what do you do for a job ?
