I just an offer to study a master degree at a very good university.
However I have recently been applying for jobs as well, and I was contacted
by the HR of a company.
Basically should I them that I have been given this offer?
PS The degree is quite relevant to the nature of the company

From HR's perspective I don't think it'd be any different than your having a competing offer from another company on the table.
At most it might encourage them to expedite their decision process. However since the school year is probably still at month and a half or two months from starting they've probably got enough lead time that it wouldn't seem more urgent to them than normal.
I am assuming that you don't face any major deadlines prior to the start of the school year. If you need to move, make a large non-refundable deposit, or otherwise commit yourself heavily before then you should bring that date or dates up with your HR contact.

Yeah, just sent the hr person an email saying that I have this offer but would still prefer to work first...i already had a phone interview plus a skills test with this company...so i'm guessing there is still 1 or 2 interviews left?

I know what you mean: don't be vague...I've already got an msc so I can simply say studying for another one is just way too much

it's not about it being too much. I'm sure the company wants to know what YOU want to do. As far as mentioning it in the CV, I don't think that is necessary. You can mention it in an Email/Phone/Interview and be prepared to counter offer, for example asking about potential part-time work and part-time study, or see if your University has a night classes option.
