uni/degree pilot training

Hello, I wanted to ask you an advice and I have no idea because the italian system is COMPLETELY different (I am from italy)
I would like to go to University with a pilot-related degree, and I really do not know which degree would be useful in case I won't find a job/I cannot be a pilot for any reason.
I found some courses at Leeds University which are:
- Aviation Technology with pilot studies (3 years) with the possibility to do the pilot licences
- Aviation Technology with management (3 years) ,, ,, ,, ,, ,, ,, ,, ,,
- Aviation and Aerospace Engineering

University of Loughborough:
- Aviation Engineering BEng (3 years) or MEng (4 years) (Actually I do not know the difference between BEng and Meng)

I found also Brunel University but I don't know if it is a good one!

If you could help me, that would be great!
I say that i do not have (right now and in 2013) 80K£+ to spend for a private flight school such as OAA, etc... (I will try with the BA FPP).
In italy I do not see any future!

PS. I am 20
