If you've the option, you can just take mostly electives or required-for-graduation courses (sciences, english classes, and that crap) the first year to see what's out there. I'll just offer this bit: Do Not front-load classes for your major if you can avoid it. I did that for my first year thinking I' get all the boring prerequisites for my major out of the way so I could focus on interesting classes later. Then changed majors the next year.

I screwed myself out of ALL of my electives after that since none of the classes overlapped with the major I ended up in. Spent the next three and a half years taking classes I *had* to take just to get my receipt...i mean, diploma. (excluding my Japanese classes, which I loved despite being required for completion.)

Also, not sure how it is in the UK, but in the US, if you're not in a high demand field, you're pretty much forced into a master's degree program to get a decent job. But if you're going with IT, you're probably set.
