Maybe all just anecdotal but have seen heavily int’l classss at Gsb vs where I went at booth for example. Think it contributes to a v global vibe so I think it’s great they do if so

I studied economics and graduated in 2019 and joined TFA right away. I was recently accepted into the MPCS program at UChicago and I am trying to decide if it is worth the investment. I imagine if I did one of those coding boot camps I could land a decent job as an engineer or product manager - would a masters degree give me that much more leverage
