Which of these degrees would be beneficial for a pharmacist in the community/retail setting who is ultimately seeking advancement into management positions (pharmacy manager, district management, etc.)? Either one? Neither?

--edit--

MS in pharmacy administration
 
I'd say MBA.

Are you doing a dual phamd/mba program?
 
Unfortunately the school that I will hopefully be attending does not offer a dual program. I'm just curious as to what degrees would be advantageous to pursue in the future after obtaining a PharmD.
