Computer Science (BSc or MSc (conversion)) long distance and part-time

Hi, guys!

I have just finished my masters in financial engineering and I am thinking in doing a second university/masters while working full-time. Obviously, I don't feel like attending courses in lecture theaters anymore given the advanced teaching tech that we have on our hands. However, I struggle to find an online course in Computer Science/Software Engineering/Programming (BSc or MSc (conversion)). Do you guys know of any such courses? Preferably in UK, but not only. Also, it would be nice to be delivered by a prestigious university. I know about Open University ... but I don't know ...

Thanks in advance!

For a BSc by distance learning:

For a "Conversion" Masters by distance learning:

Now, I haven't done any of these but IIRC the "distance learning" at Uni of Liverpool was questionable as it was ran by a company working with the uni. So it wasn't always clear if it was the company or the uni delivering the modules.

I know someone from a meetup who dropped out of the masters at Staffordshire, there were only 2 students and neither of them finished it as it wasn't a well run course.

You have limited choices I'm afraid with distance learning.
