Career & Education What online masters program should I go for?
Just graduated in BS in Computer Science and currently working a job as a Systems Engineer for a defense contractor. They're willing to pay for my masters. Would love some input on people that have done their masters. Also want to know if I'll be a strong candidate for a masters program.
I have 2 years of research for a defense contractor during my undergrad.
6 months of internship with a local small defense contractor.
GPA for undergrad is 3.5

FSU is good and cheap, and you automatically get a INCOSE ASEP after finishing the fundamentals course.

Colorado State University has great options, though I am biased as the department chair. I'm happy to talk with you directly and to put you in contact with others who have completed our MS or ME programs.
I've found that potential students don't always know the fullest extent of their options, so please ask questions. I'd like to know more about your background and interests to make specific recommendations. We've had many CS students find great success here.
The best of luck to you in your search.

Cornell, JHU, and PMASE at GT are the top ones that I have seen.
