It's been nearly 40 years since he got his MChem, but my dad still tries to convince people to refer to him as Master of the Universe.

Right on. What was your research about?

If it's niche enough, answering this might be very poor opsec

I firmly believe that any grad student should be able to explain their research in broad layperson terms. If the only thing a graduate can do to explain their research is copy paste the abstract of their thesis, that reflects very badly on the student. I have more faith in marxisthayaca

For example, my grad studies were on recovering valuable materials out of industrial waste.

100%. I just think caution is warranted for certain cases where a small amount of detail and the year of graduation might be enough to personally identify someone.

It was a professional master’s degree, so no active research (ph.D is coming soon); but it is about the theory and application of learning theory and educational technology, how do students (mostly adults) learn in online courses.
