Is a DBS Dublin computing program that runs only two days a week with online components a genuine qualification for Irish and European employers?

DBS Dublin is a recognised and accredited institution, and its computing programs are genuine qualifications for Irish and European employers. The two-days-per-week class schedule and online delivery components are a deliberate feature of how the course is structured, designed to allow students to work part-time during the degree, which is both financially practical and professionally valuable. The quality of the degree is measured by the accreditation body and the curriculum content, not by how many days per week students sit in a classroom.

• The assignments, projects, and assessments in a DBS computing program are comparable in depth and rigour to programs at other Irish institutions, even if the delivery model is more flexible.
• When Irish employers see a DBS degree in data analytics or computing, they see a recognised Irish third-level qualification from a known institution, not a lesser credential.
• The practical value of the two-days-per-week model is that it creates space for part-time work during the degree, which means you can be building Irish work experience while simultaneously completing the academic qualification, a combination that is more valuable to employers than a degree alone.
