BSc or BEng Computer Science?

    On the university website it states:
    The BSc is a Bachelors of Science and the BEng is a Bachelors of Engineering. They are the same course but students can choose what they wish to graduate with.
    Both have a placement year in industry, and according to the above it's the same course.

    When looking for employment after graduation (or for any other reason), is there any benefit in having either a BSc or a BEng?

    Thank you

    I was about to say thats kinda weird, but then our course is a BA in Computer Science, but is accredited by engineering ireland or whoever it is(mandatory attendance:| ).

    BSc Would be the standard I would think, at a guess if you're interested in hardware over software pick Eng and vice versa.
