Is a Master’s in Computer Science still worth it at 38 during the AI boom?
Hi everyone,
I’m a 38-year-old mechatronics engineer working in the US. I’m thinking about doing a Master’s in CS because I want to move more into AI and software.
My question is about timing. AI is growing very fast and changing every few months. I wonder if a Master’s is still a good investment today.
Also, because of my background, I’m not sure if I should focus more on robotics + AI or go fully into CS.
For people who went back to school later in their career:
Was it worth it? Did it help your career?
Any advice for someone with an engineering background?
I would like to hear your experience. Thanks!
