Computer Science vs Undenominated

    Undenominated engineering is down as my first choice on CAO and right now I'm looking at computer science as the most likely transfer for my second year (although I'm still not fully sure). Looking at the first year timetables though they seem to be quite different, so I'm wondering if anyone has any advice? Would I be better off going straight into computer science or going through undenominated?

    Are you fairly sure you want to go into computer science for second year? Undenom ENGER v Comp Sci are a considerable bit different In first year but its what you want at the end of your degree that matters. If you are edging towards going into computer science then why not start off first year doing it?

    I agree with The Lost Sheep here. I know people who have transferred from Undemoninated Engineering to CS&IT after 1st Year and settled in fine, but if you have yourself set choose CS&IT as a higher choice on the CAO than Engineering in my opinion if you prefer CS.

    It depends if you want to do IT or Engineering really, that's the question that you need to think about. If you are in doubt, then doing Engineering might be a better idea as you can transfer to CS&IT if there's space etc, but don't do Engineering if you know you are going to do CS&IT for the rest of your degree.
