Sapplication14 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Hello all, This is my first post on this forum so I apologise if its out of the ordinary. I am curious as to what the difference is bewteen the Masters of Science in Computer Science is, vs the Masters of Science in Applied Computer Science. Which looks better on a resume? And which degree would you want in what field of work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiveworlds Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 (edited) Applied courses teach through real world learning. You could for instance be an apprentice electrician/chef etc and learn through on the job learning etc. Normal courses are more theoretical. Whichever is best is really what suits you everybody is different. I like learning stuff on my own so a research masters would probably suit me.

Well, would one look better than the other on a resume? I am interested in CyberSecurity,working with any federal law enforcement agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
