Is anyone working full-time in tech and doing a remote part-time master’s? I work in business development for a software firm and hope to transition into a business analyst role. I've been accepted into a remote master’s in computer science and data, an may start in March. Not sure what to do. It’s been a tough decision as a woman nearing 30, single, and thinking about starting a family. If you’ve done something similar, how’s your experience been?

I did it. It was 2 years of sleep less nights lol

A woman on my team is doing this RN. She’s one semester in; starting the 2nd. She’s not married but likes the idea that the option will give her. I give her space to do it and am frequently checking to make sure she’s finding balance between her obligations. She’s handling the workload of both well. I didn’t have the same support and know how hard it is. Hopefully everyone around you will make sure you give you the grace to focus on yourself/ your growth as well.

I just wrapped up and it was rough. It’s working all the time, mentally you’re always doing either work or school. I had a very supportive job that provided flexibility for it, it was possible a lot due to that. It would be really hard if the job itself isn’t flexible (for example giving you space to take classes even if it’s during the day, letting you flex when you do the work). I learned a lot and sometimes the work and school overlapped which was great. It’s doable but give it serious thought.
