The course is designed for those with an interest in the mathematical sciences or who require a better understanding of mathematics for their jobs and wish to improve their mathematical skills for their future career. It is a single-stage, add-on course and provides a solid background in the fundamentals of mathematics. The course is two years in duration and requires the successful completion of eight semester-long modules, four of which are taken each year (two each semester). The modules are delivered in the evenings, making the programme attractive to those in full-time employment. The course is suitable for individuals who have already studied some mathematics at third level within another discipline. Graduates of the course are eligible to enter the part-time ordinary degree course in Mathematics or transfer to the full-time honours degree courses in the School.

In addition, School of Mathematics and Statistics offers the opportunity to study any of the modules from this programme and other programmes in the School, as individual Continuing Professional Development certificates. For more information please contact maev.maguire@tudublin.ie.

• Completion of a suitable number of third-level mathematical modules.

or

• A level 6 or level 7 qualification in a mathematically related discipline.

or

• any other such qualification that the Institute may deem equivalent.

Mathematical, analytical and problem-solving skills are required in the modern workplace and career opportunities abound for numerate graduates. A mathematical qualification is the key to a wide range of employment opportunities and this flexibility allows graduates to enter whichever sector is thriving and advance their careers quickly. A mathematics qualification is ideal for upskilling and recent graduates have found employment in the ICT sector and the financial services.

Graduates of this course will develop analytical and problem solving skills and be in a good position to embark on high achieving careers in industry, commerce, the teaching and other professions, and the public sector. The School of Mathematical Sciences offers a ladder of qualifications, both part time and full time, and graduates can take steps towards an honours degree, postgraduate study and degrees by research.

Two weekday nights: 6.30pm – 9.30pm.

Applications are now closed.

Detailed information regarding the application process can be found on the part-time section of our website.

Students who have successfully completed the course are eligible to enter the part-time Ordinary Degree programme in Mathematics or stage 3 of the full-time Honours Degree programme in Mathematical Sciences or Industrial Mathematics.
