OT: Online Masters Programme
by Jayden Brayden 21 Mar '14

21 Mar '14

Hi all, I am exploring the possibility of taking a masters programme online preferably Software engineering or Information Systems. I am keen to know if any of you have experience with the online programmes: - Do you know of *AFFORDABLE* online universities? - Do employers have a bias on classroom courses (on-campus) as opposed to online courses? - Is it even worth it to take online programmes from foreign schools as opposed to attending evening programmes locally? (JKUAT comes to mind) Will appreciate any information I can get to help me make the decison. Thanks in advance. Regards, JB
