大龄土木女想转码求建议 - 咨询 Gatech Online MSCS

lz本科国内读的类似于ME, 然后有高等数学，概率论，线性代数， VB。。。GPA3.8
研究生哥大工程管理 GPA3.67， 没有修计算机相关的课
毕业于2017 年底，由于工作实在让我无语遂想转码， 被人安利了 Gatech Online MSCS， 感觉物美价廉，我还能一边工作还房贷。。
目标申请2020 fall, ddl 3/1，在此之前可以补课
但是不知道这个项目对CS background 得要求如何，给他们发邮件，原文如下. 大概就是建议去上有成绩单有transcript的课，但是他们也没有推荐途径，请问大家我只上网课的话是不是不太保险，有没有一些带credit的项目推荐呀?

感激不尽， 另外我微信376375945，希望有在这个项目里的人或者也想准备申请的人联系我，我们组团

In general, the College of Computing expect applicants to be comfortable programming (C or C++ are generally expected at a minimum) and to have had at least several more advanced topics, such as Advanced OS, Networking, Java, Python, Theory, and/or Algorithms. Usually, if the applicant does not have a CS degree, they are looking for background that shows evidence that the applicant have equivalent skills. The College of Computing has stated that applicants will need a background in object-oriented programming in Java and in algorithms to succeed in this program. If you decide to take courses that provide skills such as object-oriented program, algorithms, and something that provides experience in programming in C. These CS courses would provide a better foundation for being considered for a graduate Computer Science program. If you do pursue some CS courses, the College of Computing would expect to see some sort of grade connected to the course or part of the evaluation process (some courses show a grade or percentile, others do not do any evaluation. generally these type of courses are non-credit courses and will not show your CS knowledge-base).

Non-Credt Courses:
Taking non-credit courses through various MOOC platforms (EdX, Coursera, and Udacity) does not guarantee admission to any Georgia Tech credit/degree programs. It may however enhance your application by showing you have the necessary background. If you do pursue some CS courses, the College of Computing would expect to see some sort of grade connected to the course or part of the evaluation process (some courses show a grade or percentile (a credit course) - which generally means a transcript is generated which you would submit once you completed the courses by sending it to the Graduate Admissions office.
If you decide to take credit courses during the application process you must submit transcripts from every academic institution you have or are attending. Therefore, during the application process you will submit/upload the most recent-updated unofficial transcript from your current academic institution along with a transcript from your previous college/university. Your current transcript will have the course and or courses your are taking along with the credit hours. Your current transcript will not have your final grade but will have all the credit hours you have accrued in taking the CS courses. Georgia Tech Graduate Admissions will process your transcript. Once you complete the courses you will send (by U.S. postal mail) your official transcript which should have your final grade to Ga Tech Graduate Admissions office.

请问土木的工作让人无语主要是因为工资低还是因为不给申绿卡呢

工资低，绿卡嘛因公司而异，我是毕业没好好找工作，留在了实习的公司，然后发现小公司格局小，尝试找工作一年，因为背着H1B被各种不要。。或者是经验还不足，但在现公司也学不到东西，死循环

楼主你好，我也是土木行业的（岩土的），硕士毕业工作的第三年，也算大龄了吧哈哈，也有想法转CS。

目前在斯里兰卡出差，薪资虽然不低但是基本上就等于拿时间换钱，看到当初硕士去美国转CS的同学高薪且不那么累，而且目前的工作不喜欢是确定的，同时也觉得工程设计未来可能会被智能化的计算机程序给取代。所以也想往CS进军，目前想法是把目前手里的项目跟完，然后申2021的春季。

但是说实话 也有一些迷茫，但是又怕花了较大的代价读了一个二硕反而赶上经济危机 骑虎难下，不知道你对转行是怎么看的呢，想和大家多交流交流嘿嘿，PS：我被人安利的是东北大学的CS master项目，2.5年 tuition 7.5w$

谢谢楼主分享。。请问“背着H1B”不好找工作，是说申到H1B之后反而不如OPT有优势吗？

因为在土木行业，很多都会问你什么visa,如果你是H1B, 很多公司就不愿意招你，毕竟在你工作之前需要花钱帮你transfer还要等，而且现在政策搞的他们听到h1b就躲， 我有两家愿意给我transfer，要么公司特别小，要么就是从开的工资里扣了律师费， 反正就是很难。。。OPT的话就可以立刻入职啊，但是你会担心后面给不给你H1B就是了

把edx的gatech四门课上了 就能申请了

同想申请，土木没身份找工作找到无语

同行， 目前再转DS online 学习。

楼主其实不算大龄，共勉～

请问土木的工作让人无语主要是因为工资低还是因为不给申绿卡呢

楼主我也是工程管理！！！！！！！！！那就是坑啊！！我还本科是工程管理！！！！！我也是很无语啊！！！！！！！！

大龄有多大？感觉楼主25左右，不算太大吧。Gatech项目可以的，适合没什么基础的人上一上，有大群的

建议踏实申请个学校读cs master，在校没毕业申请这个online更合适
