MS IT/CS - Geo Tech vs UTA vs PUG

[bjcheung77]

I have a friend of mine who is doing it from Georgia Tech and as per him, the course is very scattered everywhere (not organized properly) and need to struggle with finding materials. Hence, checking with other people and keeping all options open.

That is because these programs are the "newer" ones on the block using MOOC as a medium, be it Coursera or Edx, both GT and UT-Austin are very good options, but I would still recommend a "one and done" for you.

Since it's your first choice and you've completed your IT undergrad at PUG, stick with them. The reason is you can "jump" to a MSCS or MS Data Analytics/Science after you get the MSIT from PUG.

As mentioned by LevelUP - WGU would be another option, they're also a "one and done" university that I recommend, in this case, since you're into competency based degrees, you can try to "mix and match" with other competency based degrees versus the more tradition MOOC option at GT/UT-Austin. Don't rush yourself, but I believe CBE is more for you as you've got the experience...
