    I have just completed my BS in MIS from a RA B&M school, and I also have an AS in a health physics/nuclear imagining. I am working as an Clinical Systems Analyst and enjoy my work. I think this end of the hospital suits me more for some reason. I am looking at grad school now, and trying to decided if I want to continue with an MSIS, MSIT , or MBA -Project Manager. I am looking at whatever is going to make me the most marketable in the field. I would prefer a program that is reasonably priced >15k and RA, since ultimately I would like to teach one day. Finally I would prefer a faster track if available, but not necessary since I work full time. Anyway...any suggestions for this long time lurker? I have looked at Amberton and Tarleton State so far.

    AIU - American Intercontinental University is a great school and reasonably priced. Their MBA program is about $26k and includes all books. This is a regionally accredited school. I think an MBA is more marketable and recognized.

    There are much more respected MBAs at much cheaper prices.
