Given the current 'war for talent', particularly for those with online marketing expertise, we've started on some research to find out what exactly is being offered by UK Universities and Colleges in terms of courses for anyone wanting to study online marketing, e-commerce, digital / interactive media. 

We're building a list of relevant courses which might help others looking into further education in this field. Are there any we have missed?

Hello Ashley,

I am a Computer Scientist and I've always been interested in Art, Design, and Digital Media. I want to combine computing with design and I was thinking of applying for a course in Degital Media.
There are two questions I want to ask you:
1) Can you please rank the list of Universities you've given? Is there any official ranking available, like the Times?
2) What about work? What jobs can you take if you do any of these MSc? Are there enough jobs? What's the money that one gets?

I would appreciate it if you could answer these questions for me as well as comment on anything regarding the MSc courses and the job as a Designer.

Regards,
Markos
