    It doesn't matter where you study as long as you like what your studying!

    Nothing wrong with an IT! :)

    Why?

    If there's a more appropriate course in GMIT, with a good rep, then that's what the OP should be looking at.

    (And that's speaking as an NUIG graduate, and one who loved the place!)


    EDIT: OP, this site: http://www.qualifax.ie may also be useful.

    Oh sorry! I just thought like employers would prefer to see a uni course on your CV and in fairness Nuig is a great place to be:) No offence intended....
    OP, have you considered Arts?

    That's not always true though, that's kind of our point! :)

    It depends a lot on the course, and the course's reputation.

    This statement, however, I endorse whole-heartedly! :cool:

    Have considered trying a different course provider but I'm not sure if I am willing to move from Galway :/

    True! Not sure what are of it though! If there was a part of IT that stood out to me I would most definitely try it :)

    Have been using this site for all the courses man! ...Thanks!

    I have indeed! The areas in it are so vast though and I don't know where it would bring me afterwards!

    Thanks everyone for the help also :)
