    I heard about it on Friday, but WGU has finally publicly announced these two new masters degree programs. An MS in Computer Science and an MS in Software Engineering.

    Both programs have concentrations.
    For the MS in Computer Science, the concentrations are:
    • Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning
    • Computing Systems
    • Human Computer Interaction
    You can find out more info about the CS masters at the link here: https://www.wgu.edu/online-it-degrees/computer-science-masters-program.html

    For the MS in Software Engineering, the concentrations are:
    • Domain Driven Design
    • AI Engineering
    • DevOps Engineering
    You can find out more info about the Software Engineering masters at the link here: https://www.wgu.edu/online-it-degrees/software-engineering-masters-program.html

    I am personally shocked by the explosion of actual Computer Science masters degrees. A big reason why I got my masters in information technology from HES was because there were almost no options for an online CS degree at a reasonable price, and what few options that existed back then required a CS undergrad degree.

    We are living in amazing times for distance learning.
     
    TEKMAN and Jonathan Whatley like this.

    TEKMAN Semper Fi!

    WGU programs are great for people who are currently working. It is very difficult to find a job with the WGU program graduates if you are not working.

    What do you base this statement on? I've seen no data to say that's the case.
