    Hi All,

    Im thinking about taking on a part time course in ITTD doing Computing / Computer Science however I have a couple of questions...

    I done a full time course there previously, Electronic Engineering, however I struggled a lot with maths an in the end, I gave up after I got my cert (Laplace and FFT are EVIL!)... how is the maths on the computing / CS course?

    As I work full time (at least for now) it absolutely HAS to be part time... what are the hours like?

    As I previously attempted 3rd year in Electronic Engineering and failed, miserably, does that mean I am required to pay additional fee's as per the information listed here -> http://www.it-tallaght.ie/AcademicSchools/StudentAdministrationOffice/Registration/Fees/FreeFees/

    Thanks for any and all information provided...

    The maths is very basic and only in the first and second year. It's basically converting binary, hexidecimal etc.

    The part time course runs 2 or 3 evenings a week from around 6pm onwards (I think).

    Finally, I'm pretty sure you would have to pay :)

    :(

    Thanks for the info though, 2-3 evenings a week is manageable.

    I think u always have to pay for part time courses anyways, as they allow you to work full time
