I`m current deciding where to study next here. I wanted to know if their is any difference between the software development course offered by Rhodes University compared to computer science offered by UDW. I`m confused which one will give me better job opportunities and if its worth going all the way to Rohdes or just studing in durban.

Dude thats an insane question.
Rhodes is one of the oldest and most respected unis in SA. UDW...I had to google that....never heard of it to be honest.
Even if there are difference in the Software course...I'd grab a chance to go to Rhodes with both hands & not let go. (Great campus btw - my sister went there)
That being said...uni's differ wildly by specialization (e.g. Rhodes kicks everyone in the balls journalism side 365 days of the year but tends to lose out on say the accounting side)
>>which one will give me better job opportunities
Rhodes - it'll get you much further CV wise

Have a look at University Ranking by Academic Performance (URAP): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rankings_of_universities_in_South_Africa
UDW falls under UKZN, just that it's at a different location.
