Hi all
Im writing this on behalf of my boyfriend. He is 26 and has a Leaving Cert but no third level qualification. For the past two years he has been working for an engineering company, and really enjoys the work. He is really keen to progress in this job/area, and feels that he should go to college part time and study for a degree in Civil Engineering to broaden his job prospects. Can anyone offer advice, or has anyone done this part time? As most of the courses seem to be 5-7 years part time he really wants to know that this is the right move before he decides to go for it. Also the only suitable course he can find in the general Dublin area is in DIT, and that seems to be an ordinary degree. Are there any particular courses or colleges that are recognised above others?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Thanks!
