A Master's in Data Engineering is the most suitable choice given your Computer Science background and 58 months of work experience. This path will build on your technical expertise and open advanced roles in data systems and analytics.

A Master's in Business Management is better if you want to move into leadership or management roles that blend technical and business skills, but it may not fully utilize your strong technical foundation.

For your profile and career goals in tech, Data Engineering offers the best fit. If you want to discuss a possible transition to management, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
