MS In project management or PMP certification

I would like to know if MS in pm is worth or PMP is worth? This is based on assumption that money and time isn't a criteria. I have both, and I am willing to pursue either. I have 5 years of experience in leading new product introduction for consumer electronics and planning to take manager role #projectmanagement

Tough to answer this without knowing your background and your goals. Most TPMs have neither a PMP nor an MS in project management.

Why do you think that a PMP or an MS in Project Management will help you? Which companies are you targeting?

Get the pmp first, you can achieve it within 1-3 months of hard work dedicating 2-4 hours a day studying, now you have the knowledge with a respectable certificate, then head to the MS if you want Pmp city is $550. Federal or position interfacing governments and federal loves pmp over MS

MS in PM likely not worth it. PMP would depend on the company/position. Some people value it highly, some people don't, and some people might even count it against you (extremely rare, but it has a negative stigma much like an MBA would). If the job req says PMP preferred, then a PMP would help you.
