I have a Bachelors in Management (of Information) Systems from the University of Missouri-Rolla, where I now work. I have minors in psychology, computer science and economics (though I didn't actually get the paper work filled out for the econ one), if the university allowed minors in engineering for non engineers, I would also have an Electrical Engineering minor. Had I not already split up my schooling the way that I had, I should have gotten a BS in Computer Science as well, but I didn't want to add yet another semester.
I had started as an EE student did that for 3 and a half years (so a year and a half from graduation), then I left school for 3 years and ran my own computer business out of the home while working part time elsewhere. When the business got to a point where it was get a store front and do this full time I re-evaluated and decided that I wanted to get a degree, but I knew it wasn't EE anymore. So I went back and got the MIS (though they didn't actually have the I in it when I got it they morphed the degree into a whole new school my senior year, but that's anothe story) degree which is what pulled me so close to getting the CS degree as well.
I'm debating on whether to go more business or more technical with my masters, which will take awhile as I will be working full time while I pursue that degree. It won't be till Jan 05 that I start up again though, so I still have time to figure that out.
