UOC revisited
Some days ago I wrote about the UOC, this Open University that inspires me and leads me to get my MSc. in Knowledge and Information Society. I must say that I was totally wrong. What I interpreted from my tutor explanations and what he really meant had nothing to do. I thought as the university realized that a 12 week period for developing a MSc. Thesis work was to short time to do it when working full time and because that they gave us the opportunity to finish the thesis in a longer period without having to enroll again and pay the tuition fee.
I was wrong as I said. Not only I have to pay again the tuition fee but I have not been able to enroll and keep the access to the restricted contents of the library... really sad. Luckily I am member of the Old Students of the University of Barcelona, where I studied my degree in physics, and keep the access to the materials of this library.
So, after a year and a half of moderate satisfaction with the UOC, I am really disappointed because they bad way to manage this issue.

I work in the Telecommunications department of G&D. My academic preparation was in Astrophysics and my professional
career has always been linked to Software Development and ICT Project Management. This blog was started when I was studying an
MSc. in Knowledge and Information Society in the UOC and I specialized in Technology Watch and Intelligence.
