Overview

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

Course Delivery

Part-time by day attendance – shared delivery with full-time students, timetabled within the usual 9am – 6pm working day.

The below websites have information on recommended textbooks, average weekly workload, assessments, and exams.

  1. Civil Engineering
  2. Environmental Engineering

This course is offered under the ACCS scheme. ACCS is an acronym for “Accumulation of Credits and Certification of Modules”. This scheme allows students instead of studying an entire course – to study one or more modules of that course. Modules passed, are certified individually, and can be accumulated, leading to an award of a Degree. The accumulation of sufficient credits for the award of the BEng is expected to involve a minimum of two years part-time study and the course modules are offered on that basis.

Award

  1. Bachelor of Engineering in Civil Engineering (Level 7 on the National Framework of Qualifications) or
  2. Bachelor of Engineering in Environmental Engineering (Level 7 on the National Framework of Qualifications).

Modules

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.

 

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

BEng (Ord.) graduates may be eligible to apply for Honours Civil and Structural Engineering Degree courses (NFQ Level 8). The Engineers Ireland Graduate Diploma is also a possible route of progression to full membership of Engineers Ireland for those holding the appropriate minimum entry requirements.
