Masters in Data science online? Pretty sure their online program is run by a for profit institution which makes it a no go in my book.

What's the danger here? My openly for profit MSBA at a state school only let me down in that we got last dibs on classrooms and couldn't offer a few electives. There was still plenty to keep us learning relevant stuff though, and it all worked out pretty well for most 🤷‍♂️

One of my professors taught both there and in my MSBA simultaneously. Cool smart dude, great instructor, would recommend. Don't know if he still does though.
