SSRI online : five-year experience on a bachelor degree offered in e-learning at the University of Milan (Italy)

This paper is aimed at presenting a review of the ‘SSRI online’ e-learning experience. Started in the academic year 2004/2005, the online bachelor degree in Computer Systems and Network Security is still the first online degree offered by the University of Milan and the unique degree centred on ICT Security available in Italy. At the moment, we are delivering the seventh edition of the degree and, after six years of experience with an audience of more than 300 students, we want to evaluate the project results, focusing our attention on the students experience: which results they have achieved, how much the degree has met their expectations, which placement opportunities they have achieved after the degree. In the following sections, first we briefly resume the main aspects of the SSRI online project, and then we show our evaluation results.
