What career paths are available for someone with a BS in Computer Science and an MS in Marketing or MBA

What career paths are available for someone with a BS in Computer Science and an MS in Marketing or MBA?
I recently graduated from a very reputable engineering school with a Bachelors of Engineering in Computer Science. After landing my first real job, I have realized that coding is not what I want to do for the rest of my life. I have an extrovert personality and feel like my talents are best suited by being around other people instead of being trapped in a cube writing code. I have always considered getting my masters in something, however was never sure what degree would best suit my technological background. Would pursuing an MBA or getting a Masters of Marketing open up some career paths for someone with my background looking for more customer/social interaction as well as a higher paycheck in the long run? As a Software Engineer right out of college, I am making a lot more than many of my peers who studied business as an undergraduate, however I feel my talents are best suited in the business world. Any thoughts, opinions, or advice would be greatly appreciated!

in marketing you can probably work in the advertising industry, maybe become an ad exec. Perhaps for an IT company since you may know how to portray a companies strengths given you comp sci background...just a guess..but I'm sure there are lots of opportunities for you..good luck.

Most people who want to do graduate work in marketing get an MBA. It would be the wise thing to do, as an MBA with a concentration in marketing pays better than an MS in Marketing. The best schools for marketing are exactly the same as the best MBA programs. You can get MBA rankings at US News or BusinessWeek. = = = = = = EDIT = = = = = While I stand by my comment that the best MBA programs also have the best Marketing programs -- I have to take back the word "exactly." Nefiaf is certainly right that the order is not exactly the same, and that Northwestern is great for marketing. US News actually does rank marketing programs. I've inlcuded the link. Nefiaf will be happy to see that they put Northwestern at the top. I have to point out that both graduate B-schools I attended (Duke and Berkeley) are also in the top ten.

Listen to Ranto. He knows what he is talking about (at least as far as getting an MBA, not an MS. I disagree that the best MBA schools are always the best in Marketing). I don't know the whole list of schools ranked by Business Week for their MBAs in Marketing, but I DO know that Kellogg (at Northwestern) is ranked #1. US News does not, to the best of my knowledge, rank schools by specialty.
