Consider the advantage of reading for a qualification other than in "aviation". The latter might be of some small use to the pilot but, in general, probably is not going to be of much use in putting food on the table if the licence or job is lost for whatever reason.

If you want to keep the external qualification close to aviation, then look at something like aero engineering.

Main thing is to consider what the bit of paper gives you when it comes to peddling it for a job in its own right. The aviation studies qualifications probably won't do this as well as a mainstream qualification.
