Master's of Science Technical Studies TESU - xicovu - 09-04-2021
I've been browsing the TESU offering and Technical Studies may be another contender.
What I saw that caught my eye was the M.S. Technical Studies.
It has only 12 of 30 Credits list - 4 courses. What are the other courses in this degree? Is it build your own like the BS Technical Studies would be?
Anyone have experience with this one?

All 36 credits are listed there. It's definitely not build-your-own.

Bummer, I thought the area of study for it might be something where I could park this:
https://www.coursera.org/mastertrack/iiot-boulder Graduate Certificate worth 9 credits
I don't think Masters programs let you transfer credits, do they?

Usually not. Amberton lets students bring up to 12 grad credits to this degree, though: https://www.amberton.edu/programs-and-courses/masters-degree-programs/professional-development/degree-plan-details.html If you can find 3 more grad credits, tuition would be $8120. https://www.amberton.edu/choosing-amberton/tuition/index.html

I doubt that degree will take Electrical Engineering graduate credits. It's unfortunate but I don't think I can use those anywhere other then the Coursera Masters, although it is still a graduate certificate on its own.
Crazy part? It doesn't require you to have a Bachelor's degree. You pass the courses with a 3.0 and it's yours. If I can't find I suitable place to park all the non-credit studying I'm doing I might just do that.
