WGU is working on a Masters in computer science
#1
On twitter, I asked WGU if they were still working on an MS in computer science, and they confirmed that they were.

In this tweet from 2017 when WGU first announced the CS program, they also confirmed that an MS was coming along with a BS. In 2018 they launched the BS program but not the MS yet.

This is what one reddit user said about it.
Quote:The last update I heard from my mentor was that it was in the works, but it would not be mentioned until next year at the earliest. They are still wanting to focus on increasing the BS in CS enrollment and graduation rates along with working to meet the ABET parameters to get accredited. They apparently had issues with their Pass/Fail based model being accepted with ABET until ABET bent the knee to allow them to pursue it. 

If I can get a CS masters with WGU, I would definitely do it. Since they have been working on it for 3 years now, I think that I may be able to finish my BSCS with them in time for the release of this program.
