Is a Masters in IT Worthwhile?

B

Hi,

I recently finished a Psychology degree, getting a 2:1. To be honest Ididn't really enjoy it that much. I've done quite a lot of computer programming in my spare time, and find it much moreinteresting. So basically, I'm thinking aboutdoing a Masters in IT, or something similar, such as this:

Postgraduate Interactive Systems Design Masters MSc at School of Computer Science

To do that, you need at least a 2:1 in your first degree, and theyaccept people who have done Psychology, because it relates to stuff onthe course.

But I'm wondering, would something like that or a Masters in IT wouldbe worthwhile? By worthwhile I mean would it make it likely that Icould get a job in IT afterward? Or is it the case that Masters courses aren't enough to get you ajob in IT? After all they're only for a year so it makes me wonder ifemployers would want someone more experienced.

Obviously it's a pretty big investment of time/ money so I want to make sure it's worth it.

Thanks.

Master of Science in Information Technology is one of the good choices. If you want to enter into hardcore IT, study and be atleast MCP Certified.
