Officially, I’ve been proclaimed a Master of Software Systems.

A few extra letters after your name never hurts !

For the uninitiated, Birla Institute of Technology and Science offers distance learning courses in various streams.  The M.S. in Software Systems is a two year “work integrated” learning program, which essentially means that this is designed for people who wish to pursue the course while working full time at an organization. You need to have some work-ex to apply. It’s a regular 4-semester 2-year programme with a mix of open-book and closed-book exams. And, you should have a “mentor” – preferably your manager in your organization who guides you through it.
