Hi,

You know, everybody is trying to get specialized in something through various ways...and the online courses (college or university, doesn't matter) appear to be a faster and easier way of getting a degree. But if you ask me, I wouldn't choose this type of courses to get me qualified. For the simple fact that seeing, hearing and performing the courses is a more effective way of remaining with something in your head

If I were deciding between a traditional university and an online university, I'd ask my future employer which they would prefer.

I'd contact a few companies that I would like to work for and ask them whether they prefer a traditional university, online university, or something else. Why should we keep guessing at the best educational path to future employment without consulting the people who will actually be doing the hiring?

Don’t waste your time going to the wrong school just because it’s the one you want to go to, or because it’s the easiest. Get the education that will actually get you the job. Employers know what they are looking for. Ask them.
