Columbia University Executive Master of Science in Technology Management: Has anyone completed this program or know of anyone who has? Any insight on how this program/degree is perceived by employers? I'm considering it, especially since it's a one year online program, but the cost is high, and looking for more insight on how it is regarded by employers and in the workplace. Also hoping to combine it with a JD eventually. Any help is appreciated - thank you!

I’m not familiar with this program but I think the same analysis can be used no matter the program or school. Presumably, it’s Columbia University for most companies will be impressed.

I would first determine why you want the degree? Is it necessary for the career you want? You need to ask the people running the program about recruitment. Who recruits? When? How many students place directly out of program into desirable companies? Is there a less expensive program that can do all of the above?

Hope this helps.

I'm holding an offer from MakeMyTrip and another offer from OlaElectric. Ninjacart is willing to make me an offer.

There's been a delay from HRs of the companies in a similar way. How do I urge them to send me the offer letter without sounding pushy? I had reached out to some of the HRs myself. Would that be too awkward if I accept & back out their offer?
