$540/ch

Graduate

Brandeis (MA) (Tier 1, #31 overall)
MS-Information Assurance (30 ch)
MS-Information Technology Management (30 ch)
MS-Project Management (30 ch)
$735/ch
$22,050

This looks to be the most prestigious B&M university offering an online degree program so far.

Georgia Tech (GA) (Tier 1, #35 overall)
MS-Information Security (32 ch)
$1,010/ch
$32,320

I felt like Chris Rock in I'm Gonna Git You Sucka when I saw the tuition.

Syracuse University (NY) (Tier I, #58 overall)
MS-Information Management (36 ch)
MS-Telecommunications & Network Management (36 ch)
$1,117/ch
$40,212

Your first year of study requires a one-week on-campus residence in July. Shouldn't be too hard of a requirement to meet with vacation time.

Virginia Tech (VA) (Tier I, #71 overall)
MS-Information Technology (30 ch?)
$488 in-state
$957.75 out-of-state
$14,640 in-state
$28,732.50 out-of-state

NC State (NC) (Tier I, #88 overall)
MS-Computer Networks (4 concentrations) (31 ch)
$240/ch in-state
$700/ch out-of-state
$7,471 in-state
$21,700

This looks like a rigorous program. If you don't have a CompSci, CompEng or EE undergrad degree, they require you to take up to Calc III in undergrad courses. Cheap if you live in NC though.

Auburn (AL) (Tier I, #88 overall)
Dual MS-Information Systems /MBA (54 ch)
$668/ch
$36,072

Florida State (FL) (Tier I, #102 overall)

$1,117.94/ch out-of-state
MBA -Management Info Systems
$486.54/ch in-state
$553.37/ch out-of-state

Kind of confused on the tuition. One one page, it says the OOS tuition is $1,110/ch. On another page, it says the IS and OOS tuition are the same for the online MIS program. Might want to double check.

Colorado State (CO) (Tier I, #128 overall)
MSBA-Computer Info Systems (30 ch)
$620/ch
$18,600

James Madison University (VA) (Tier I, #4 Universities-Master's (South))

HT: peacepa

Rochester Institute of Technology (NY) (Tier I, #9 Universities-Master's (North))
MS-Networking & Systems Administration (48 qh)
$11,078/quarter
$33,234

They have a flat rate for full-time students taking up to 18 credits per quarter. Since this degree could theoretically be completed in three quarters, I used that as the price for the degree.

University of Dallas (TX) (Tier I, #13 Universities-Master's (West))
MS/MBA -Information Assurance (39 ch)
MS/MBA -Information Technology
MBA -Project Management
$624/ch
$24,336
HT:colemic

Very annoying website to navigate. I'm going to assume all the Master's degree programs are 39 ch. They also offer dual MBA /MS degrees so you could mix and match as well.

Marist (NY) (Tier I, #15 Universities-Master's (North))
MS-Information Systems (30 ch)
$695/ch
$20,850

Michigan @ Dearborn (MI) (Tier I, #27 Universities-Master's (Midwest))

Norwich University (VT) (Tier I, #62 Universities-Master's (North))
MS-Information Assurance (36 ch)
$779
$28,044
HT:cablegod

I couldn't actually find a page specifically mentioning that this program was offered online, but Norwich does have online programs and it was mentioned by a poster in-thread.

Mississippi St (MS) (Tier III)

The MS-InfoSystems actually requires an on-campus residency every six weeks for two of the classes. BUT, you can take those required classes at another university and transfer them in if you can find them online. Not a bad option for someone who doesn't mind driving there every six weeks though.

	Engineering Degrees Engineering Degrees Engineers apply the principles of science and mathematics to develop economical solutions to technical problems. Their work is the link between scientific discoveries and the commercial applications that meet societal and consumer needs. Many engineers develop new products. During the process, they consider several factors. For example, in developing an industrial robot, engineers specify the functional requirements precisely; design and test the robot's components; integrate the components to produce the final design; and evaluate the design's overall effectiveness, cost, reliability, and safety. In addition to their involvement in design and development, many engineers work in testing, production, or maintenance. These engineers supervise production in factories, determine the causes of a component’s failure, and test manufactured products to maintain quality. They also estimate the time and cost required to complete projects. •Starting salaries are among the highest of all college graduates. •Employment is projected to grow faster than the average for all occupations, although growth will vary by specialty; overall job opportunities for engineers are expected to be good. •A bachelor's degree in engineering is required for most entry-level jobs, but some positions may require a graduate degree.

I happen to do a google search for CS degrees and was looking through each school that came up. I came across West Florida. I know they were mentioned here that they offer an MSA Database Admin which did not interest me. However, I believe they have changed things and from what I gather from the web site and from contacting them is that they now are offering a MS. CS with a specialty in database systems.

I am really looking at this program because most other CS degrees require that I take many pre-req classes that would drive the cost up considerably since I have a business degree and not an undergrad CS or engineering degree. I also like that for required paper exams I can use my local testing center. They also have a out-of-state tuition waiver that brings the cost down. I also wanted a CS degree and not CIS /IS/MIS. You do have to do either a GRE or GMAT.

The tuition isn't the lowest, but I believe the other factors carry weight. Their BS engineering degrees are ABET accredited, and I think being associated with a school like that will carry some weight. BTW, they are considering a decrease in the tuition waiver and it will go down from a 100% waiver to 90% for 2012 from what I have heard. Still a reasonable deal.

Anyone know of something comparable? I'm still searching.

I happen to do a google search for CS degrees and was looking through each school that came up. I came across West Florida. I know they were mentioned here that they offer an MSA Database Admin which did not interest me. However, I believe they have changed things and from what I gather from the web site and from contacting them is that they now are offering a MS. CS with a specialty in database systems.

I am really looking at this program because most other CS degrees require that I take many pre-req classes that would drive the cost up considerably since I have a business degree and not an undergrad CS or engineering degree. I also like that for required paper exams I can use my local testing center. They also have a out-of-state tuition waiver that brings the cost down. I also wanted a CS degree and not CIS /IS/MIS. You do have to do either a GRE or GMAT.

The tuition isn't the lowest, but I believe the other factors carry weight. Their BS engineering degrees are ABET accredited, and I think being associated with a school like that will carry some weight. BTW, they are considering a decrease in the tuition waiver and it will go down from a 100% waiver to 90% for 2012 from what I have heard. Still a reasonable deal.

Anyone know of something comparable? I'm still searching.

	Engineering Degrees Engineering Degrees Engineers apply the principles of science and mathematics to develop economical solutions to technical problems. Their work is the link between scientific discoveries and the commercial applications that meet societal and consumer needs. Many engineers develop new products. During the process, they consider several factors. For example, in developing an industrial robot, engineers specify the functional requirements precisely; design and test the robot's components; integrate the components to produce the final design; and evaluate the design's overall effectiveness, cost, reliability, and safety. In addition to their involvement in design and development, many engineers work in testing, production, or maintenance. These engineers supervise production in factories, determine the causes of a component’s failure, and test manufactured products to maintain quality. They also estimate the time and cost required to complete projects. •Starting salaries are among the highest of all college graduates. •Employment is projected to grow faster than the average for all occupations, although growth will vary by specialty; overall job opportunities for engineers are expected to be good. •A bachelor's degree in engineering is required for most entry-level jobs, but some positions may require a graduate degree.
