Opinions on the 'Open Degree'

Hello i'm new here!

I am thinking of studying for the OU's open degree starting this october and I was just wondering what everyone's opinions that have done/are doing it are?

I know it's a very broad degree but maybe just some general opinions on whether it is worthwhile when applying for jobs etc....

Hope that makes sense!

Thanks :biggrin:

To be honest when applying for jobs the degree name is normally irrelevant, it is the modules that actually count... If your doing an open degree be careful though as you don't want to swop and change subjects too much as you won't have knowledge to specialise in anything... What are you looking to study?
