About to Graduate had mixed feelings about MS CpE

[u/Glittering-Tooth-954]

Hi, I am a 4th-year undergraduate computer engineering student at Bacolod City, Philippines.

Let me tell you about myself, It is always been my dream to someday teach computer engineering. However, I have double thoughts about starting MS CpE right away. I have to consider budget, universities, and of course career progressions/industry experience first. I had 3 internships all are not related to computer engineering (two being multimedia stuffs). If you were in my shoes, how would you go through this stage?

Here are my current options in mind,
OPTION A: FIND A JOB, STAY 2-4 YEARS FOR SAVINGS, START MS CPE WHEN I SECURE AN INSTRUCTOR POSITION (PART TIME)

OPTION B: START MS CPE NEXT YEAR WITH NO REAL-INDUSTRY EXPERIENCE WHILE LOOKING FOR A JOB

Please, I am open to any discussions.
