The term "terminal degree" refers to the highest degree you can receive in a particular discipline. In most cases that is a Doctoral degree,
With that said - a Master's degree is usually NOTa terminal degree.
There is a good argument that some master's degreees, like an MBA (Master of Business Administration) is the terminal degree in that particular field. You can get a Ph.D. in business, but the empahsis and areas studied are completely different than what is done for an MBA rather than being more extensive and in-depth work in the same same areas. In most disciiplines though, the Doctoral degree is more in depth and specialized than the Masters for the same discipline and thus the Doctorate rathen than the Masters is considered the "terminal degree".

Several states require that the applicant have have 150 hours of education, which is in line with the recommendations of the AICPA (governing body). Thus, a CPA that is employed by the FBI will have the same requirements as a CPA that works anywhere else; however, the FBI is primarily interested in candidates with a master's degree.
