Graduate School

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>[ I was searching on the Internet for some help, and I found you guys. You seem to be really helping eachother : )]</p>

<p>I'm an International student from India wishing to pursue my Master of science in IT project management. Basically, I'm looking for a Course on IT Project management with Information security concentration. As there are very few colleges which offer such course ( I found only one), I've decided to apply for MIS kinds in other universities. I still prefer MS in IT Project management with Information security.
I'm searching for few (around 4 or five) univs to which I can apply to.</p>

<p>Since I belong to a poor family, my only preference is to complete my Masters with very low investment, in a mid-size city or big-town so that I can find a part-time job to support myself. A well funded univ is obviously my choice. I really don't want to get into top univs and spend lot of money on tuition.</p>

<p>My profile:
Academics - 61.14% ( It's just above average)
Work experience - 2 years as software engineer in startups.
TOEFL: 105
GRE: Expecting somewhere around 1200-1300. (Quant, expecting between 750-800. will have a pretty low verbal score I guess)
Others: I'm a national netball player in my country, I speak 3 languages fluently,and my French is pretty good. Been involved in quite a few extracurricular activities.</p>

<p>In case you need more info about me or my preferences, please leave a note.</p>

<p>Thank you in advance.</p>

<p>Project Management Professional (PMP) from PMI is a very coveted certification in this field. But to be eligible for the exam, one needs a lot of work exp. But there are institutes that offer masters courses which train for the PMP exam. Try for these courses.

I think you should find cheap options here as well.</p>

<p>Thanks Joshuahelios.
I’ve been to the wiki page. All the universities mentioned on the page are very expensive.
Well, yeah, PMP requires lot of work-ex. I guess Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM)® is a good hit. Planning to do that certification. So, I was searching for a course which can add value to the certification, or say the course to which the certification can add value to.</p>
