What is an Advanced Degree Professional?
The term “Advanced Degree Professional” means that the beneficiary either has an advanced degree (M.A., M.S., M.E., M.D. or Ph.D.) or its equivalent, and is working in an area that requires at least a Bachelor’s degree or is traditionally regarded as a profession, such as lawyers, doctors, architects, engineers and teachers. A Bachelor’s degree plus five years’ experience in a professional or progressive occupation may also satisfy the qualification requirement of an “advanced degree”.
