Meanwhile Dolph Lundgren has an actual MA in Chemical Engineering. It's a pity we can't get him to do something like this in earnest to teach engineering concepts.
From Wikipedia "...Lundgren received a degree in chemical engineering from the KTH Royal Institute of Technology in the early 1980s and a master's degree in chemical
engineering from the
University of Sydney in 1982...."

Excerpt from https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/remarkable-rise-dolph-lundgren/ "....As a result, he was awarded a full ride to the world-renowned Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a Fulbright Scholar..."
The above Wikipedia article says Dolph quit studying at MIT after two weeks for acting career.
Brian May (Queen) has a PhD degree in astrophysics :)
Tom Scholz, the guitarist for Boston with a masters in MechE from MIT, built his own effects, and much of his own recording equipment.
I still remember a very interesting article about him in the Electronic Engineering Times back in 1998: "Boston's Scholz Engineers a Rock Dynasty"

Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden is (was?) a fully qualified pilot and flew the band's 747 around the world
and Mayim Bialik holds a neuroscience PhD
And sadly a bit of a loon about vaccines and supplements.
MA is master of art according to google. MSc seems right.
Many (most, in the US; don't know about Sweden or Australia) institutions don't draw a distinction between the two and award MA regardless.
Some universities simply give you an MA a few years after getting a BA without you having to do anything additional.

You do have to manage to not go to prison, though.
