Summer School question

thanks Baxted, but I need an answer from someone who went to KP! It sounds like you had a ton of fun though!
 
How do you go to grad school w/in a half a year of graduation when you have to sail?
Distance Learning is becoming more and more popular for grad school with more and more options. My nearby neighbor (one year behind me at KP) just got his Master's from Texas A&M and if he ever set foot inside the state of Texas it wasn't very much.
 
Woops!

Sorry about that! When I saw your request right after my post, I decided you were talking to me!

Do check out the online options. Once upon a time, it was required to do some work at the degree awarding campus to get the Masters degree. Usually, it was a 1/2 day seminar so only one trip was required.
 
Distance Learning Masters Degrees

My DS (Purdue BSME) is enrolled in Texas A&M distance learning for a Systems Engineering Masters, and they have told her she is NOT required to step foot on campus. Funny thing is they still required her to have the meningitis vacccine documentation. :smile:

If you are staying in the industry you are much better off upgrading your license as high as possible as fast as possible rather than worry about a graduate degree. A Masters/Chief Engineers license carries more weight in the industry than a MBA.

That makes total sense to me.
