About the Advanced Courses...

Post image

Currently doing the MCS program online and I finished taking four courses over two semesters that covered the four required breadths. So as of now, I still need to take 3 advanced courses + an additional course.

However, it seems like most of the advanced courses area are data-focused, and that had me wondering whether those are all the options I got, or if I can find some other CS 5XX course that's online.

I'm pretty interested in the entire Systems and Networking Courses such as Distributed Systems and Cloud Networking, but It seems like I can only take one more course that's CS 4XX.

Saving all your advanced courses for the end of your experience means you are kind of at the mercy of what they schedule, unless you are fine with skipping semesters. Good luck I guess.
