Don't misrepresent where you went to school.

None of the Execs that I have met in the two EE programs that I have completed so far have any time for any grad degree (HES or GT).  It's hit or miss on who had degrees and or MBAs.  EEs are liked as they are short and generally paid by the corporation or government agency.  I see some in Canada, Ireland, England, India, and Switzerland that I would love to take if I can plan a vacation around them?  

I know I could take a HES Masters degree to the next level with no issues.  Same with a GT or a non-name University for that matter.  Its just paper to me.  I am a history buff so HU and Oxford do appeal to me at a different level. If others need a GT STEM degree great, but in the end, the real workforce will strain out the real workers from the fake ones.

Just curious, but can those shortened EE programs count towards credit at a later time if one wanted to pursue a related degree?

Most will NOT.  Rutgers has one that does, but these are $$.  They would not be cost-efficient credits.  They are not set up for college types.  They are set for folks who have made it up the ladder aways.  No degree is required to attend any of them that I have read.  

I have seen a few young folks on LinkedIn attend just one EE (LSB - London School of Business) to add a top World University to their resume.  Most are open enrollment (just pay) like MIT, Rutgers, Purdue, etc.  Only a few are selective like HKS.  The only one I have seen "very selective" is the HBS.  

I have seen some of the US Ivy colleges have a Summer program set up for minorities and they are very inexpensive.  The last one I saw was neat looking, but not for Asians and Whites.  I have seen some cool programs for young folks in a few California colleges also.  

I think Texas had one for anyone wanting an exposure to major university business school.  I thought it was a neat opportunity for the right student.

Dartmouth, Stanford, and Rutgers have a program for Veterans.

I am sure there must be more, but this what I found.

Interesting. Thank you for that info. Gives me something to look into at a later time. Were you using GI bill to cover some of your EE programs?



Yes, I researched the top US 100 Business colleges (emailed most) that did EE programs and then researched which ones EE programs were VA approved.  Most just come from four states.  It really narrowed down my selections for me.  There are other excellent programs out there but these ones hurt my wallet less.

MA - Harvard (HBS, HLS, HKS, HSPH) and MIT
IN - Notre Dame and Purdue
NJ - Rutgers, they have a Mini-MBA and a Mini-MPA
NY - Columbia

Do you have the GI Bill?
