education

I'm thinking of continuing my education and going for masters degree. I must decide between two programs.

One is CS/IT and focuses on algorithms, math, multimedia, web technologies with optional interesting courses like AI and robotics.

Second is about business process management, software architecture and project management.

I have some experience in business software and I must say, I never though I need deeper understating of algorithms or program language but I always felt that I'm lacking in project planing or management knowledge.

On the other side, CS/IT looks more interesting but what are the chances to find a job that require such skills?
