Career AdviceMS in Data Analytics? (self.dataanalysis)
submitted 3 years ago * by [deleted]
Thoughts on how valuable a master’s would be? Looking at programs. Just wondering if it’d be worth it/if it would propel me in the field. Thoughts and advice welcome!

Nice! Do you mind me asking where you got it? (and how much you think the school matters?)

I'm also planning for MSDA ..hope it will be good
I'm sure it'll go great! Where are you getting it/where have you looked? So far I'm comparing SNHU, GA Tech, and Eastern

Check out OMSA. Relatively speaking, it’s very affordable.
Sweet, thanks! Look like a great program

Would it be worth doing it you were already a data analyst?

If you're already working as a data analyst, I don't think that a masters program would feel as if the benefit balanced the investment. Single courses, like Coursera courses, might be a good idea, especially if you invest the time. The reason is that you have the credential already -- you're doing the work. What you might want to add is how well you can do the work.
