I am currently seeking two undergrad degrees.. CS and SE with a focus in Information Assurance. I've been in the field for over a year now and having been through several interviews and making friends with hiring managers in the area I've learned that as long as you have an undergrad degree it shows you are able to learn and focus somewhat. But they much rather you have the work experience, and prove yourself worthy of being their employee. I say getting a masters is never a bad idea, it won't hurt anything by any means.. but why can't you work and go to school? I'm slightly annoyed with people who think all they can do is go to school full time and not work. Trust me dude, if i can do it, you can too:)
