[PROBLEM] Master in Bridges: Surrey University or Universitt at Buffalo

[RICARDI]

Hi everybody!!

I would like to ask if someone has studied at these universities or programs.

I want to do a specialization on bridge engineering. I have already a MSc. in structures, but I
want to do a specialization on bridges.

I am not either in UK or US, so I am no able to attend to classes a full year (I´m working). However, these universities allow you to take the classes online.

Surrey University has three different options:
4 Courses and you get an advance certificate.
8 Courses and you get and advance diploma.
8 Courses + a theses (that need to be in presence) and you get the MSc.
All the classes can be taken online in this university

University at Buffalo
You can take up to 50% of the credits online. ( Approximately 5 courses)
You need 9 courses and one project to get the MS. However the remaining courses
must be taken at the university.
The courses that are taken online can be taken as a continuous education also,
but not diploma or certificate is given and where I am they love certificates.

Maybe I can attend for a semester to the university in order to finish and get the degree. However, I am not really concern about the Degree (I have already one). My main concern is about the knowledge that you can get.
I have checked the course content of bout masters. I prefer the options at surey (at least the first four).

If you have experience in this topic, have you ever studied at these programs or in other universities, feel free of putting  your two cents.

Thank you!!
