You might fool some newbie in HR but your peers will sniff it out, even if no one else does. You can put "cheap, easy, fast" on your resume but I think it's an open question whether it will help or hurt. Do your homework first.
Well, education in Southeast Asia is not expensive as in the USA.
I got my bachelor's in stats from state open university for $100/term. That's the most affordable college degree here.
On average, the bachelor total costs $3000-7000, the master total costs $3000-6000, doctorate total costs $5000-$10000.
Just because it is "international", the university ranking here is not bad.
For example:
- UMPI #4620

- UGM (Indonesia) state uni #298
https://www.4icu.org/reviews/2166.htm
- Binus (Indonesia) private uni #952
https://www.4icu.org/reviews/2158.htm
In Progress:
BS Statistics + BS Physics, Indonesia, 2023
MSc ML/AI (LJMU, UK), 2022
Completed:
PGDip ML/AI (IIITB, India), 2021
BE Civil Engineering, Universitas Pelita Harapan, 2017

Hi I want to make sure, if they still have ABET accreditation. AMA university ABET accreditation expired Sep 30 2022. I hope, they will renew it and they can keep ABET accreditation.

Basically, I am hoping so too, but it won't really matter, their ABET programs are all undergrad programs as I mentioned, unless you're going for the undergrad programs, you're not going to be affected at all and won't be a factor in deciding to go with them or not. I think they'll go for a renewal which will take time, we will find out sooner or later...
