GTech omscs vs UIUC omcds?

^ Please post your reasoning in the comments below. If it matters, I am a senior data analyst doing some SQL processing, some Excel analytics, some data modelling/predictive analytics in R. I have a non-CS engineering degree and MS Analytics from a not so great school. I am looking to transition into a better career like an ML engineer in a top tier company, which hopefully comes with a better pay.

I'd say UIUC if it didn't cost $106k. Gtech because it's under $10k and the school is on-par with Illinois for engineering

UIUC is $17k if he’s talking about the online program. Both are great programs that are very affordable and part time friendly

You could just apply for and get a job that pays you more if this is about money

While an MS in CS looks better than ms analytics, I don’t think it’s worth the time and investment. Way better off studying on your own and learning ml skills and building projects at work or on your own time
