    In terms of employers, I personally believe that a BSc is better than a BA when it comes to technology (Science vs. Arts). Now that's just my personal opinion, the vast majority of employers look for a degree and don't give two hoots whether it is a BA or BSc. I don't know how highly employers regard it, but the course always had a relatively high number of students compared to other courses, if that is any indication.

    All of the students were working in either management or IT, as far as I remember.

    As for the course itself, it wasn't the easiest of courses. I recall looking at some of the other module material and remarking on how much was in it. The course was well run when I was there - there were a lot of senior lecturers on it (I was the techie "whizz kid" that did all the interweb stuff, leaving the "serious" stuff to the course elders :D).

    Any more questions, feel free to ask.

    I don't know, I am not in the college any more. Give them a call (don't bother e-mailing them).
