thank you for your reply so much,
My problem is that I dont have background in computer, I am always chemistry major(BS. MS), although I did learn some maths and computer basic. Some universities only admit the students who have the cs background.
My case is that I am a teaching assistance in a US university, I can take some courses with tuition waiving, but I don't know if I can take computer courses. Maybe my supervisor will not be happy if I take computer courses, so ...

So I wouldn't recommend it because of the cost. (A much better value in that price range or less would be would be UIUC or Columbia University.)
BTW, what are your career interests? If you are more interested in implementation or business than computer science theory, an MS degree in Information Technology, Software Engineering, Networking, Information Systems or Management Information Systems may be more appropriate than a traditional CS degree. On the other hand, a CS degree is very marketable for a wide range of technology jobs. |
