Well about that, usually companies have multiple ways of advertising for a job so it’s not just through a university. In the end it pretty much depends on your skillset and qualifications - the university can just help make the search and applying easier for you like you said. What my question was is, is UMUC generally viewed as even slightly inferior to UMBC? Or are they of near-equal reputation? If it helps, I’m an IS major, but my impression is that usually employers consider the overall reputation of a university moreso than an individual major at that university, especially if say the IS curriculum at UMBC is not any more accredited than the one at UMUC (they actually have the same level of accreditation in this case), so they’ll probably compare the two universities which, ALSO have the same level of accreditation (they are accredited by the same broad agency for Maryland colleges - that’s it).

Though despite that, I’m not sure why I heard mixed reviews on UMUC making me think it’s worse than UMBC…you would think that since UMUC is right next to College Park…it’s better than UMBC at least? Lol.

Well of course “many” are like that but how much is this “many”? I doubt most. I think this guy is just a pompous moron liking that title of doctor of his, lol.
