I took Software Development because it had an AI minor. I didn't take Formal Systems, because of my AI, which made things easier. I also learned Scheme in the CS lesson, which led me to Lisp.

But now, I'm sure I use skills learned from the course, even if I didn't get a job out of it.

This University was BCS accredited, which means a lot in the UK. Unrelated, but I met the at-the-time President of the BCS at a conference in 2003.

Really? In 12 years experience I've yet to encounter any situation in which the BCS was even slightly relevant. Everyone who actually needs/cares about CEng status goes to the IEEE instead.
