no caps. in the above usage, the term is not used in connection with a specific field of study or program. it is a generic term applicable to all masteral degree programs, regardless of specializiation or field of study.
all caps, if it were a formal term specific to a field of study, in which case the field of study is part of the name, e.g., Masters in Public Administration.

According to the Free Dictionary, the American Heritage Dictionary, Wikipedia, and the AP style book, it is lower case: master's degree.
