What is the value of an online Master's Degree in Managerial Logistics at North Dakota State University?

​I think there is no doubt that the master's degree is a huge benefit for the employer. My friend, Henry https://www.stockopedia.com/contributors/henry-brown/, has a Master's degree in this field, despite working as a writer for freebooksummary and writing articles on books (e.g., red kayak, educated and so on). He says that this degree plays a role in his employment history. Every employer wants to see an educated and highly qualified worker.

From the Army’s point of view, a master’s degree is a master’s degree, unless it is achieved through a competitive fellowship program. It isn’t required for progression in your career, but as my assignments officer once briefed, “Most of your competition will have one.”

If you’re looking post-military benefit, and looking to stay within the logistics field. (I see you’re TC), then the combination of your military logistics experience combined with a degree to back it up will most definitely be a benefit. When comparing degrees, the reputation of the school will factor in, but look at the school’s accreditation compared to some of the “bigger” names. The accreditation boards have standards that an institution is supposed to maintain. If the program is accredited by a worthy board, then I would worry a little less about on-line vs. campus. There are many fine institutions offering an ever-increasing number of on-line degrees these days.

Final piece, see if the schools web page lists where some of their graduates are working. I’ve always thought that to be a good indication of the value of the degree as well.

Best of Lick!

Your question is a good one, and please don't take my response as cynical. Few personnel administrators have any idea of the relative value of the various state universities, much less the degrees from those institutions. Once you get outside the Ivys and the Big 10, it's a ticket punched. A masters would serve you well in your military career and open doors in pursuit of a civilian position, but the truth teller is achieving what your employer needs, both military and civilian.
