Should I list this degree on my resume or will I be considered "over-qualified" for most web developer positions?
Depends on the specific jobs you are applying, and the requirements they may have. It is usually recommended that you tailor your application to better fit each candidate job position, so you have better chances of landing it.
Personally, we can't know a priori if some company X will find such degree as over-qualified. However, seems to me that if you plan to apply for jobs related to Web Development, mentioning a degree with a concentration in that area will most likely be advantageous to your application.
I'd say you include it (surely a good background check will reveal it anyways), but also try to keep your options open; don't rely on just one prospect company.

In May, I will have a Master of Professional Studies in Informatics with a concentration in web development. The college is an accredited state university. I'm currently unemployed and seeking work for immediate employment. Should I list this degree on my resume or will I be considered "over-qualified" for most web developer positions?
