CS degree or not? Data Analytics? For my work situation
#11
ABET doesn't mean much in the Computing world, it's a great to have option but many schools that are well recognized don't have it. Since you have a TESU BSBA, you can just wait until it's the right time to get the bucket list degree later. If you're focusing on a Masters, you can go for the WGU MS Data Analytics as you mentioned above and be done with it. I think you finished the MEd Instruction and design at WGU in a term or two, it shouldn't take you that long to finish this one.

This is how I would slice it, since you're into a Computer Science degree, you can go for a Masters in Applied Computer Science. Your main prerequisites for these is just a Bachelors and a few computer science courses. I think you have the BSBA CIS right? Did you go for the ASNSM Biology and Math or CS? You should have sufficient undergrad CS courses for several MACS options. Here's one for non CS majors at about 11.5K, you can finish this as your second Masters if you decide to skip WGU MS Data Analytics.

Sometimes having too many degrees isn't really needed or recommended, Just wondering - What's your "bucket list" degree you want to finish at TESU? The BA Biology? I wouldn't put too much focus on your Bachelors unless it's required for your current professional goals. What is it you really need/want? These are all public/state universities: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...t-Virginia
