Default Master Degree
Anyone working towards a Master Degree while flying for the Airlines? Just trying to see how doable it is with the full time schedule and time in hotels

While I dont work for an airline I fly just a much and am also working on my masters. I am doing the delta state university online program and it is working very well. It is all at your own pace and a very manageable workload. I am only doing one class a semester but could easily do two if I wanted to. This semester I have two due dates for assignments. The midpoint of the semester and the end of the semester. Most of my classmates are professional aviators and make it work out well. I would highly recommend looking into DSU

I'm working on a masters through Florida Tech. Two classes a semester, it's manageable with an airline schedule.

If you can't do it working an airline job you wouldn't be able to do it working any other full time job.

Master’s degree (not captitalized), not ‘master degree’. Also, ‘airlines’ is not capitalized as it’s a common noun as well. You’re welcome..

I completed mine while flying. Did a lot of work in hotels.
I was able to knock it out in about 15 months taking a pretty heavy class load.
Delta State. All online.

That's the kind of thing you learn when you get your Master's. They don't teach it in HS or college any more.

While I worked on a lesser degree, I found it was doable with minimal time spent working on it at home.
