Part-time MSc in Computer Science: where?

Jobseekerrr

Hi, I am Italian and I reloacated three months ago to Ireland to work in the Finance team of an American IT company.
I have already a double French/Italian MSc degree in Business and since I like to study I was thinking of undertaking a part-time MSc in Computer Science.
I already know C, VBA, SQL and would be more interested in studying topics like databases, cloud computing, data analysis, data mining rather than programming.
Since I know nothing about Irish universities, could anyone:

- recommend me some Computer Science part-time MSc that is worth to consider?
- tell me how it works for people who work like me, to attend the lectures? Are they in the evening? If they are in the morning, how am I supposed to attend them?

I live in the IFSC in Dublin and work in East Point Business Park, anything handy to reach with public transportation would be perfect (or grand as you love to say ).

Thank you guys!

Ciao Fulvio,

Something like this, perhaps? https://www.csi.ucd.ie/content/msc-computer-science-negotiated-learning

There's a wide variety of modules, it's geographically close to you and there's a mix of online and evening classes.

Hi Dermot Illogical, thanks for getting back to me.
The MSc in Computer Science negotiated learning seems to be interesting, there are plenty of online courses and some evening lectures as well.
If I understand well I can choose the online/evening courses I like the most in order to obtain 60 credits and then there will be a research/thesis exercise of 30 more credits, right?
I just need to see if with two MSc degrees and a work experience of a few months in an IT company I meet the entry requirements, apparently not

Yes you choose 60 credits of modules, with agreement of the college, followed by a thesis. With regard to the entry requirements there's no harm in asking them if you qualify.
You might get in based on work experience and current knowledge.

There are more options nearby.

Again there's no harm asking in each case if you meet their criteria. Some will be stricter than others. If you do fall short of requirements they should be able to advise on the best way to bring yourself to the required level.

National College of Ireland - right there in the IFSC, couldn't get any closer.

While they don't specifically have an MSc. in Computer science, they do have a range of MSc.'s in IT areas.
