I am 13 years into a tech career and 10 years from "retiring". Ime., my goal is to continue working, but shift gears to something easier. I'll need to make some money, but could get away with today's equivalent of $50kish. For my retirement gig, I'd love to teach college courses. I am a data scientist but am not formally trained. I have an MA in an unrelated field. I'm considering getting an MA or PHD (online only) in Data Science to open doors for teaching, and thinking it may have some benefit for the rest of my tech career as well. Questions for you all - do you think it's more valuable to have a PhD from an online university (e.g. National University) or an MS from a more reputable university with online options (e.g. UNC, Cal Berkeley)? If you hear someone has a PhD from National University, do you discredit it right away, or is it a non issue?
Like a community college? Would not go into this. Not enough positions.

BREAKING: Internal sources confirm another round of layoffs just hit emails at Tesla. For real.
I wouldn't trust an online or part time PhD. It's not something you can do on the side
MS probably is possible tho
