How to choose further education?

Question

IT education

Good afternoon everyone, I am a full-time student of the 2nd year of KNRTU-KAI with the specialty "Design and technological support of machine-building industries." Recently I have been self-educating myself, including learning the Java language. I am also interested in developing mobile applications, I want to bring my knowledge to Junior Developer and get a job.
Unfortunately, studying in my current specialty only hinders me, and I entered it due to a lack of points in the Unified State Examination, so I’m thinking of switching to correspondence or distance education in the specialty “Information Systems and Technologies”, so that there would be knowledge as an output? and diploma.
Questions: What do you think is the best thing to do in this situation?
Has anyone graduated from distance learning, for example, at the Synergy MFPU (megacampus.
I really need your advice :)
