Hello HN~<p>I'm an analyst with about 3 years of data experience. I do customer engagement analytics for an online bank, mainly dealing with large transactional datasets stored in SQL databases. Recently I have been moving into developing engagement strategy based on my analysis work.<p>I'm considering doing a MS in Computer Information Systems with a Data Analytics concentration to learn some new skills, mainly in R and data mining techniques. My undergrad was in International Relations. I'd like to work my way up to a more "Data Science" role down the road.<p>Is this a good choice? Does this degree have value in the market? I have been hearing a lot of conflicting information.<p>This is the program I have been accepted into: http://www.bu.edu/met/programs/graduate/computer-information-systems/data-analytics/
