Can you suggest whether I should pursue an MBA, a master's, or a combination of both?

Pursuing a Master’s in Computer Science (MSCS) is the best fit for your background and career goals. With your Computer Science degree and work experience, an MSCS will deepen your technical expertise in areas like software development, data science, or artificial intelligence.

An MBA is more suited for those aiming for management or leadership roles, but it won’t offer the same technical depth as an MSCS.

Dual MSCS/MBA programs exist and combine both skill sets, but they are intensive and only necessary if you specifically want to blend advanced tech and business leadership.

For advancing in specialized tech roles, an MSCS is the most effective choice.
