Anyone think one of the possible three:

- Master of Science in Information Management
- MS in Computer Science
is better to take over the others?

I may just go for it just to have it on my resume. Though I'm sure I will be asked if the school is in Aspen, CO, and I work in NYC, how did I manage to go to school? I guess that would tip them off that it was an online masters. So online master's aren't really good to some people's eyes? Doesn't it show motivation, determination, self-improvement? I've been in the tech field for a little more than 4 years and I don't want to be stale.

There was also another online MBA certificate program - at a well known school though I don't believe it was the top 10 school, who were offerring their program for about I think it was $4 - 7k. Kind of steep for a pre-MBA program. Though they say there was real world application.

If you were serious, you would be saving hard, then taking out a BIG loan, and going to a top 10 school. That clearly states you are SERIOUS about your career.

Sure if funds are tight then $4000 might get you SCEA, OCP, CSDP (IEEE membership) and a shelf full of good computer textbooks. That is a better investment than any 'online' degree.

It does, and employers know it.
