academic degrees
If mention of degrees is necessary to establish someone's credentials, the preferred form is to avoid an abbreviation and use instead a phrase such as: John Jones, who has a doctorate in psychology. or Sally has a master's degree in psychology. One exception is a terminal master's degree such a Master of Fine Arts, which must be distinguished from a regular master's degree. Example: She has a Master of Fine Arts in design. Use an apostrophe in bachelor's degree, a master's, etc., but there is no possessive in Bachelor of Arts or Master of Science. Also: an associate degree or associate degrees (no possessive). Use such abbreviations as BA, MA and PhD only when the need to identify many individuals by degree on first reference would make the preferred form cumbersome. For those with a PhD use Dr. preceding the name only on first reference.
