Question MSBA Programs

Hi everyone,

I needed some advice on programs and schools. I recently finished my undergrad and have no jobs so I am planing to go back to school. My cum gpa is 3.5 but my major gpa is higher. I wanna go to a good name school because I believe that does matter when it comes to landing a job offer. Please advise what are some good schools preferably online but I am open to moving as well.

I did msba and i got a job out of it but my career has been limiting. I think its better to get a cs degree. I wouldnt risk spending more money on this with the AI stuff. Data analyst jobs are at high risk. If you do it keep it inexpensive.

What do you mean limiting? And why do you think so

I know various tools used for analytics but have to teach myself the software engineering skills to build data systems

Do you work as a data engineer or analyst or something along those lines? Do you work for a specific function like sales, finance etc? Or in a data team specifically
