<prompt> Human: Hello everyone, seeking professional and educational advice. I am 32 years old and 2 years ago completed my BA in Nuclear Engineering Technology. I have been out of the military for 4 years now and still have 11 years to use 36 months of GI bill. For those that dont know, if I go to school and go to a school that participates in the Yellow Ribbon program, I can essentially pay 0 for school and will actually receive a housing stipend for roughly 700 a month. I finished my BA in a year while working full time and even though it was not easy, I stuck through it and am glad I did. Now on to my current situation, I want to get my Masters but am struggling to decide a subject. I love science and technology but cant do many engineering programs because I dont have the prerequisites. I want to get a degree that will be useful but also one that can be done online. I am currently a service tech for a manufacturing company and enjoy what I do. Getting paid to better myself is something I dont want to waste, and looking for any advice.  <response>: If you like your current company, explain your situation and ask if there is a need for employees with degrees in certain areas. We have had employees do this and it makes us more willing to cut them slack while they work toward their degree, and gives them the security of a job waiting once they graduate, should they want it.
