Abstract. In this article, education is considered as the main way of developing human capital. The efficiency of investments in master’s degree is considered. The purpose of the study is to study the ideas of students about the role of the master’s degree in the formation of human capital. The results of the study showed that three-quarters of respondents consider the acquisition of the master’s status necessary. However, among them, only half of those who are fully confident in the implementation of their life plans. That is, not all of them will be trained in the master’s program. The positive significance of master’s education is higher among students from small towns and large urban agglomerations. The financial situation of the family has a direct impact on the choice of a master’s degree. Most of those who want to study for a master’s degree are registered in “well-off” and “well-to-do” families. Obtaining a master’s degree in the views of students significantly increases the chances of employment, adaptation, the quality of professional competencies, the level of material prosperity. Thus, in the views of most students, the master’s degree status is a significant factor in the formation of human capital. But not everyone has a chance to realize their intentions of studying for a master’s degree.

Keywords: master’s degree, education, human capital, investment in human capital.
