I would like to get opinions on what I should do for graduate school. I got my BSEE from Purdue University in May 2002. I have worked 2 years and 4 months for the Air Force and I have become aware of the tuition assistance they offer. I would be taking classes at night while working full time.
First question: I do not know which degree I would rather pursue, an MS in EE or an MS in engineering management? Is there a benefit to either one? For any employers out there, would you rather have an employee with one or the other?
Second Question: I am thinking of looking into distance learning (taking classes online or through TV feed). Has anyone had any experience with this, and how did you like it compared with actually being there in person? Are online-obtained degrees viewed as equal in value to a degree where you are in the class given the same school?
Any other advice? Thanks!
