Informatics Academy IT degrees

[BroadBear]

Hi guys, I would like to hear some feedback/comments on the IT degrees offered by Informatics Academy. I have seen their programmes and they are offered by the prestigious Oxford Brookes University. Question is, how recognised is it among employers in Singapore? I have checked the OB website and the modules looks different from the Informatics syllabus

Care to share some opinions here

Can help with how recognized is it among employers here ?

However, with regards to the syllabus, u can certainly checked with Informatics on the differences and also in a more general sense on the differences between the degree conferred here vs over in England.

I used to work in HR, so I will ask you this questions & you think about it if you are a fresh graduate.

1) Since you do not have any working experience, how are you going to sell yourself to me in an interview?

2) My degree is also from distance learning & I spend 2 years for it because of advance standing. My course 1 year have 2 terms & each term I will have 3 to 4 modules. This mean that I will have about 18 to 24 modules (9 to 12 modules a year) of knowledge upon graduation from a 2 years degree course.

You use 1 year of duration with only 4 to 6 modules of knowledge to graduate with a degree. My 1st question to you is how competent are you to do a graduate position job? My 2nd question to you is how competent are you to do a graduate position job compare to me?
