Stay in India or pursue masters in HCI abroad?

Hi guys , I am working as a Software Engineer and found interest towards UX design .So in the learning journey to switch my career into UX design.Also,I have a plan of doing MS in HCI.will it be worth it? Which country is best for HCI masters and will it give value to a UX designer?

Background : I am a product designer with a few years of experience in the industry. I already have a B.Des degree and I'm seeing that the standard route for people with my background is to do a masters in design. From my time working I've seen that people who are good designers irrespective of whether they have some sort of design degree or not are doing well. Which makes me unsure whether I should take up masters or not. This might be a very biased take since the sample size is very small. All in all, I wanted to understand if a masters degree holds a high valuation like in other industries.

My background : Work ------ 2.6 years of Work experience as Software Engineer in WITCH Company handling the middleware and some devops operations in my project. Education ----------- B.tech in CSE from a Tier 2 college I started my career a bit late compared to my peers because of some bad decisions in past but I was able to get back on track and gain industry experience . Since past year I realized I haven't grown much career wise . I had plans to pursue Masters earlier but postponed it because of COVID and I realised it's better to gain some experience before going abroad. I didn't want to pursue a traditional CS Masters degree since I wanted to explore and learn something new . That's when I came across HCI and over the months my interest in it has deepened . I did take some courses related to HCI and UX to get better understanding. Skills ------ I have fairly decent front end skillset with good basics in HTML, CSS , JavaScript and ReactJS . Started learning Figma recently I want to land jobs as UX Engineer where I do a bit of design and coding . I have got admits from good universities which have specialization in HCI . I wanted to know if it's a good decision to go for masters now and pursue this field .

I am currently working as an Industrial Designer at a Startup ( 14 LPA ). I have a Master’s Degree in Design from Indian Institute of Science. I am not finding jobs and am very confused about wether to continue as an Industrial Designer since I see very less demand as of now. On the other hand UX design is very lucrative in terms of perks and package. Your thoughts would be really helpful.

Hey Designers, I'm seeking recommendations for UI/UX certification courses with significant market value. Any suggestions?

I want to purse masters in design or science but unsure which country has the best job opportunities. Should I try US, UK or Canada or Europe? My options are mainly design management or HCI.

Hi, I am currently working as an software developer (5+ years experience)with around 40LPA CTC. Most of the people in my circle have gone there 2-3 years back. Now I am having a fear of missing out, I applied for a few universities and I have got an admit in MS in CS. Is it worth it to migrate to another country and start again at this point of my career? What is your opinion on work in USA compared to India? Need some experienced folks with honest answers please.

Anyone here done both or just m.des could you please help out!
