MS in Social Research at Hunter College, CUNY

[FutureMAStudent]

What do you all think of this vs a Master's in Sociology? I guess the difference is this is generally more research/quantitative oriented than other Sociology Masters Programs. I am already taking an Online Grad Cert in Applied Stats, however learning it in the context of Social issues would be much more interesting. Perhaps I'll be able to get out of a class. I do enjoy the longer length of the MS in Applied Research program and it seeming to be very job focused.

Thank you in advance for your replies
