Hi All,

I am Aravind, I am right now 2.2 years experienced in IT industry and I am trying do my PG or masters canada and find a good job their. Below is my profile

Work exp - 2.2 in IT
B.E- ECE - 74% ( Zero backlogs)
12th - 86%
10th - 76%
IELTS - yet to take but will try to make atleast 7.0

I wanted to pursue my studies in MS CS or IT as because i am not that interested to do courses related to electronics , I am not sure what is the big difference between CS o IT by my consultant says since i am Electronics graduate i wont get admitted for CS or IT masters except for networking . I don't want to do networking. She also adviced that i could instead take Project management IT PG diploma, since my interest lies in management filed I thought it will be good, she said the pay is even little higher then software engineer. The course is for 8 months + 4 months paid internship. My biggest doubts are
1. Should I take PGD, based on its value and based on my profile ?
2. Is masters much better , if yes what options I have ?
3. Taking a PGD in project management IT , is it a good course , will it help my career ?
4. Will i be able to make it to a job comparatively to making it in a masters
Any more advice...........
