What is a Module?

A module is a standalone unit of learning and assessment and is completed within one semester. A full-time student will normally study six modules in each semester; part-time and ACCS (Accumulation of Credits and Certification of Subjects) students will have flexibility as to the number of modules taken.

Entry Requirements

Higher Certificate in Engineering in Civil Engineering (NFQ Level 6). Holders of other relevant qualifications will be considered for admission on an individual basis.

Please note: Part-time students who are in a position to attend by day may take modules on the programme at any time.

 

What is RPL?

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is when formal recognition is given for what you already know prior to starting on a programme or module. With recognition of prior learning the focus is on learning and not on experience as such. You can apply for RPL in any MTU accredited programme or module. Programmes which are accredited by professional bodies or any external awarding bodies may have their own procedures for RPL which you should refer to.

Fees

€300 per 5 credit module (inc. exam fee)

Progression
