I'm considering it. I have a bachelors in computer engineering and worked as software engineer before quitting. Now I'm struggling getting employed again.

I am! Not sure which program though... I'm a self-taught programmer and always feel like that's not enough.

Hey, wanted to know what the degree should be listed as on a resume? Just Masters in CS from University of Illinois? Do you include it was online and do you think it looks less prestigious than a more conventional masters in CS? Thanks

The diploma doesn’t designate online vs on campus. It’s the same courses as the traditional Masters in CS at UIUC so I wouldn’t include that the courses were taken online

Would you recommend a masters in CS if I can't find a job in my field after graduating a year earlier, or is having work experience more valuable to try for first before studying? I feel like I have no real options with how unlucky I've been in this job market, despite gaining certifications and practicing relevant skills for entry or junior level roles.

I have a bachelor + master in Finance, and have been working full-time for ~2 years as a self-taught software engineer. I am now considering doing either OMSCS, MCIT, MCS or the MCS from Texas. Do you reckon I could get in with my background? Or would I need to take courses in Discrete Mathematics and Data Structures & Algorithms first?

Similar background. I found collages that accept students with no CS background to do Masters in Software development but not Masters in CS. How about you?

Hey Will, you are wonderful man, thanks for the encouragement, I am working as senior software engineer and last month got promoted to a tech lead position and I've been wanting to do masters from a long time but never had the funds for it. Finally based on my budget and Indian economy I might consider OMSCS and just wanted to know if it's worth or should I consider Illinois MS?

@@xjakex2514 because while CS is good up until a bachelors, AI/Machine Learning is an available masters that’s offering many more opportunities than a saturated CS masters rn.
