I’m seeing a lot of people here mention GA tech analytics programs. Is that the best? Just curious.

It’s probably amongst the best in terms of school reputation and affordability. Sure there are higher ranked schools (GT is top 10 CS so there aren’t many anyways) but many of their analytics degrees are either exponentially more expensive and/or degrees aren’t even conferred by the same college that gives the institution the reputation. Looking at you UC-Berkeley, with your disgusting $60k+ tuition from “school of information”, a complete separate school from its CS department

Not necessarily, it’s a great price .

Great price, good program if you are a self starter. It’s a top ~10 cs school.

UT Austin also has a program in the same price range. I think Illinois is ~$22K.

It's the best value for a program

If price is your biggest concern it's one of the best options. Northwest Missouri State University has an even cheaper program but it's not as thorough and well recognized.

Tuition?

Thanks everyone for the perspective!

Currently working in-house for a large bio pharma - like the company and most of the people, but the work is really getting monotonous and I just leaned through the grapevine that I am making significantly less money ($15k to $30k) than others in the same level/grade as me. The work I do is equally difficult and I have a smaller team because people have left, so there is no way “type” of law justifies this. I think I just did a poor job negotiating my salary and raise.
