Well, after careful consideration and reviewing the current options available for online Computer Science degrees, it appears as if I will be staying with Baker College for the time being. My current job involves quite a bit of travel and the threat of travel which leaves me no room to take traditional classes at brick-and-mortar schools. One would think in this day and age more universities would offer their Computer Science degrees online.
I kind of get why there are not very many four-year engineering degrees online yet, and even then, technology in simulation software is catching up and allowing almost anything done in labs for four-year engineering degrees to be done via a workstation now. With that argument out of the way, it seems to come down to investing the time and money into setting up the online degree for such a small return as mentioned in the April, 2003 Prism article “Can Distance Education be Unlocked”. So why is there such a lack of online Computer Science degrees?
