1 00:00:02,100 --> 00:00:06,130 Reason why I picked distance learning systems engineering program 2 00:00:06,130 --> 00:00:10,220 was I wanted to be able to get my master's and get the education 3 00:00:10,220 --> 00:00:13,670 while maintaining the work experience and one of the key points for 4 00:00:13,670 --> 00:00:17,180 me was actually the 2 summer models bringing us all in allowing 5 00:00:17,180 --> 00:00:21,050 us to meet each other really gave us the feeling that we were back in school again 6 00:00:21,050 --> 00:00:25,290 back in college it was really tough but it was a lot of fun we learned a lot and 7 00:00:25,290 --> 00:00:28,680 being able to meet with people gave the program a very personal feel 8 00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:32,540 that it probably otherwise wouldn't have if you were going to another program that 9 00:00:32,540 --> 00:00:36,320 wouldn't bring you on the campus in this way because whether on campus students for 10 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:40,420 distance or eastern you walk away with the scene the crate decreed if you're 11 00:00:40,420 --> 00:00:44,520 going to a Cornell degree we want to make sure that you're entering the workplace 12 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:48,170 with the skills and talents of someone from Cornell should have to want to make 13 00:00:48,170 --> 00:00:52,950 sure that our disses free program is a culmination of all of our best educational 14 00:00:52,950 --> 00:00:57,350 experiences tailored just for the distance learning on if somebody was looking for 15 00:00:57,350 --> 00:01:00,830 advice on whether or not to follow my path I would say that they should definitely 16 00:01:00,830 --> 00:01:03,860 consider it that's a little bit different from a normal program that different 17 00:01:03,860 --> 00:01:07,570 styles you're going to have to work hard when you go to a top 5 institution 18 00:01:07,570 --> 00:01:10,840 you're going to have to work but it's enormously rewarding 19 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,680 Honestly I don't think you're going to find a better program than this.
