Check out the program through University of London, Goldsmiths on Coursera. I'm currently halfway through the first term. It was a little buggy at first but it is getting better. The teaching style is pretty engaging. It is about 3k USD per term and there are 2 terms per year and the program is 3 years total.

UK CS programs are a little bit lighter on math than US programs but they still try to cover quite a bit. The first term courses are:

- an introductory programming course taught using P5.js. I was initially skeptical of that approach but it turned out being a lot of fun.

- a numerical mathematics that attempts to cover pretty much everything

- web development course

- how computers work course (similar to a computer architecture course)



3K in what currency?


According to Coursera, Total cost "10,088 - 15,132" pound sterling, depending upon geographic location of student.


this is the total cost of the entire program just for clarification, not the cost of a term or a year. It was ambiguous for me since American Universities always do by term or annual cost.


sorry USD, the cost depends on what country you are in I'm pretty sure. I'm in the US. You also have to pay for the exam fees at a local university but not all classes require a final exam. The cost of the exam depends on where you do it.
