My Journey - TESU BA Computer Science

[Ideas]

Once you have the BSBA, have you considered just getting an undergrad (or grad) certificate in Computer Science instead of pursuing an additional bachelor's degree? It is effectively the same thing and less additional work.

I my case, I don't need a CS degree for my work, but I already have the experience of being a CS engineer for the last 30 years, so I figure I might as well get the credential. I'm considering the ASNSM-CS and/or BSBA-CIS concentration add-on to my BSBA, though I'm also considering just picking up a CS certificate instead. My ultimate goal is an MSML and/or MBA in IT Management since that is more my focus these days, but I like the idea of having the CS credential on there as well... particularly if I can get it quickly and cheaply.

I have the BSBA. I think that most grad certs would not be easier for me and not cheaper, because you don't have the ability to do Saylor, DSST, cheap community college, etc. Undergrad isn't enough. I already have the ASNSM-CS, which I'm glad I have, in case somehow I don't finish this, but I plan to someday, if not this year. There are some other plans which may delay the BA-CS

Do you have any CS credits done already? I think adding the CIS concentration would be easier and cheaper than the undergrad CS cert!
