MTech and Working Part Time

[initroot]

Hi ,

So anyone that attempted to do MTech:IT and working part time?
How manageable and time consuming is it?
I've been studying and working part time for some while and not sure If I would be able to manage the workload.
I'm going to try do it over two years with Unisa.

Doable, I know people who have done MTech over 2 years while working full-time.

Thanks also looking to do it over two years. Work gets quite hectic so will hope for the best.

You'll have to cut on social life, allocate weekends on your school work and during the week on work.

Ive applied to do MTech IT at Unisa - 2016.
Hoping to be able to do it in 2 years and Im working full time.

Now the long wait until Feb to hear if we can register.......

I did my M.Com (I know not the same) while working, not too difficult, but I had to put in 2 or 3 hours each evening. No more sneaking off to the pub after work.

Great, topic?
I have already got a supervisor, send my research outline directly to the Prof whom then accepted. Just have to get the registration finalised. But he told me to contact him if I have any issues, so far so good..

Topic? And just now you go and take my idea!

Have you completed the whole applications process? During my application they emailed me with a list of outstanding docs, after submitting these.... the wait...
I cant wait to start though... am already spending one or two hours every week on it and my application hasn't even been approved yet. :wtf:

Hahahaha I've already submitted my research proposal and if I "take" your topic would be useless. Masters should be something your're really interested in else its going to be a hard 3 years.
Just general field? I'm doing field wise machine learning & intrusion detection systems.

Yea same here already have a 20 page literature review completed, just can't help myself.

3 Years??? I was hoping to do it in 2! And I think if we keep up the hard work there will be no reason not to be able to do it.

My field - Open Distance Learning. So please stay in contact, I'm going to ask for your help later with a survey thing
But seriously, pm me, we are three students in a little email group, so far just for motivation and information purposes.
