"The problem with generic degrees is that the graduate doesn't have a specialism as such."
What do you mean by generic? Have you actually looked at the content of the courses you are deriding?
Okay, so you now know who I am. The content of our course was agreed after a series of Steering Committee meetings which included representatives from GAPAN, the CAA, British Airways and the FTOs. We didn't just dream it up - we were actually asked to create the degree.
Oh, and 85% of our graduates are working as pilots.
