ASK HN: From lit major to Computer Science Masters?
porter: How about the Master's in Computer and Information Technology at UPenn?http://www.cis.upenn.edu/grad/mcit/Looks like it's designed for people like you.  Not sure how this would be seen by employers - perhaps some others can answer this.For anyone on the hiring side of a web company: would it be better for a non-CS undergrad to go through a masters program like the ones at Penn/Chicago, or would it be better if someone took a year off, taught themselves, and actually built some stuff?
