MSc

[ratewhore]

Holy Thread Resurrection Batman!

Just had my unconditional offer from Edinburgh Napier to study a MSc in Security and Digital Forensics on their distance learning program, looking forward to it for a number of reasons, will give me something to do when stuck on the bench or in a hotel room when working away, hoping to build on the practical exposure I have had to InfoSec with some formal qualifications before trying for CISSP. I never studied for a bachelors degree so think I read somewhere a few European countries won't let you work there without a degree, but mostly I am looking forward to it because the subject fascinates me!

Well done and good luck!! Have to say though, my MSc has made absolutely no difference to my day rate or available opportunities...

Just buy one for £150 off ebay or "online university" - much easier than working.

Why are you doing an MSc? (Purely out of interest, that's not an "why are you wasting your time?" kind of question, in case it came across that way I've never really seen the benefit / interest in more studying, particularly when I'm working as well - what's the attraction / motivation?
