Computer Domain Ltd are offering a Masters degree in Computer Science from the University of Hertfordshire and a number of other specialist courses. The degree is not Information Security centric however amongst the modules one will find Distributed Systems Security and Secure Systems Programming which are two modules that fall in the realm of Security. That said, the course last July was priced at GBP 6000 (EUR 6,678.64). Further details can be downloaded here.

Needless to say, the degree is fully recognized internationally and also by the Government of Malta and so it is eligible for STEPS sponsorship.
