Masters in Science. It's right there in the name. You are a scientist by the very classification of your degree.

My feeling is if you are doing science, then you are a scientist.

10. Science comes from the Latin word for knowledge |
|
If you do things intended to increase the sum of human knowledge, then you can call yourself a scientist.
Also, if your experiments involve lasers or bubbling chemicals or supercolliders, then you can say "scientist" in that real deep melodramatic TV-announcer voice... :)
