I'm thinking of getting my master's in MIS, anybody know about that degree?

Do you think it's going to be really useful in about 3 years? I'm a senior getting my B.S. in Economics soon, but I already have 3 years of experience in IT, so I figure I should set my career in that direction (instead of finance / investment).

Masters in Information Technology Management / Consulting at University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) is specifically what I'm asking about.

Thanks in advance for any advice at all!!

Well, I'm not an expert with the MIS degree, but I think there is a BIG difference between MIS and IT. You should research what MIS is before you actually set forth the money to get the degree. Sorry, I don't have any personal experience.
