You are right. Maybe it's too focused for people from US.

They both have pros and cons but in the end, I think for me, a master degree is more interesting:

- More content and subjects (Usually takes 1-2 years) and usually more theoretical contents - Official title - Options to continue with a doctoral degree

In favor of the nanodegree:

- Taught by influential people in the field - Industry-oriented - Hiring partners (?)

I have been thinking and if I was going to take a nanodegree, the only one I would go for is the self driving car ND. Why? Because It's something different, something you can't easily find at the university. I see it like a bootcamp, so maybe if you have a AI background you can learn more about this particular field and hopefully land a job related to this technology
