In the US, you need either a master’s or doctorate level degree. There is really no difference in hiring practices between those with MS or DPT, and the pay is the same. However, the DPT is emphasizing an increased practice base with more emphasis on health screening and research.

You have the best career opportunities with a doctorate in PT. Including opening your own practice or jointly with an orthopod for sports medicine.
