Masters in CS or Udemy/edx/coursera nano degrees?
Post is for spouse. She is a Biotech major (india) and is working in US as a BA entry level. She has about 2 yrs of xp @ Infosys back home and has started her career in Healthcare IT (McKesson)
Do you guys recommend that she goes for a Masters in CS ? This would involve few months of pre-reqs and 2 year part time degree while working. Would this help her land a 80-90k+ job? Midwest (MI)
Or is it better she takes these nano degrees / online platform mooc type degres from reputed websites and go into a specific field, that way?
Visa is not a problem since she has an EAD for now and can get a TN in a couple years.
She is looking into Data Science/Data analytics, Cloud computing and DevOps as potential options to streamline into..
Thanks for your input!

Did you have to take a few pre reqs before you started the masters?
