DCU or NUIG computer science conversion post graduate course

    Hello,

    I have recently been offered both the DCU and NUIG computer science conversion courses.

    DCU course: http://www.dcu.ie/prospective/deginfo.php?classname=GDF&originating_school=40

    NUIG course: http://www.nuigalway.ie/courses/taught-postgraduate-courses/software-design-development.html

    Does anybody have any idea which is considered to be a better course? Mostly I am concerned about employment opportunities after completing the course but any advice about the content of each course would be greatly appreciated also.

    On the surface both courses appear similar with perhaps more scope in the Galway course regarding programming. I think you are introduced to two computer languages, Java and C. As I have very little programming knowledge the more I do in the course the better I feel.

    Any advice appreciated and thanks in advance.
