	What do you want to do? Do you want to do calculations and design and testing? The MSEng is right for that. Do you want to do supervision and business plans and systems? The MBA is right for that. It just depends on what you want to do. __________________ "Well, I've wrestled with reality for 35 years, Doctor, and I'm happy to state I finally won out over it." Elwood P. Dowd

	Are you now and do you want to be forever considered just a "techie?" implementing others ideas. Or do you aspire to make decisions of an organizational rather than solely technical basis? Do you like meetings? Do you like to be responsible for things other than your own workmanship? Do you want to be the one deciding who to let go, or the one being let go, not hired? Advanced engineering degrees deserve respect, but are seldom valued by companies looking to cut costs. First ones to be laid off. An MBA with an engineering background just might be able to keep a company from doing something REALLY REALLY STUPID. Just might, if they are an effective communicator. milo __________________ People say between two opposed opinions the truth lies in the middle. Not at all!
