About this episode
Remember when a Master's degree was the automatic next step? That script is being rewritten. A growing number of students are now reconsidering that path, looking squarely at the price tag, the job market, and asking, “What's the real return on investment?" The answer could be reshaping the future of education and work in ways we're only beginning to see. On the show: Niu Honglin, Steve & Yushun.
