    You are more likely to get the core of this MA course online for free elsewhere. But as the course convener puts it, it is not for freaks or IT geeks who are more likely to turn up at the exams door or just work out on the project to get the MA recognition. The other issue as well is the freshness of the course since by the time students will finish their courses, something else could already crop up.
