Unique Financial Package for Postgraduate Programmes for the Smart Economy
DCU and the Bank of Ireland have created a partnership which will enable those who have been made unemployed in the last year to avail of financing up to €15,000 in order to participate in postgraduate education.
The School of Electronic Engineering is delighted to offer the following postgraduate options under this scheme:
| MEng in Electronic Systems | EU National Fee: €2000 * | EU Status Fee: €9,219 |
|---|---|---|
|
The purpose of this flexible programme is to allow participants to customise a taught Masters programme
based on preferred focus areas. With a range of over twenty modules to choose from, this Masters programme
can be completed in numerous combinations. Specialisms are available in Nanoelectronics/Photonics,
Image Processing & Analysis and Control Theory. The growth of applications in manufacturing, biomedicine,
media, ICT and the life sciences is creating a strong demand for graduates in the Image Processing &
Analysis field. The Major in Image Processing & Analysis prepares graduates to specialise in the areas
such as computer & machine vision, biomedical imaging and image analysis and synthesis techniques.
The aim of the Major is Nanoelectronics and Photonics is to deliver leaders in this emerging interdisciplinary
sector with huge predicted growth. The Major in Nanoelectronics and Photonics focuses on the skills and
knowledge required to produce functional electronic and photonic devices and constituent structures of
nanometer dimensions. |

| Masters Qualifier Course for the MEng in Electronic Systems and Telecommunications Engineering | EU National Fee: €2000 * | EU Status Fee: €4,612 |
|
The Masters Qualifier Course is for students who wish to join the MEng programmes in Electronic Systems and Telecommunications Engineering,
but who do not have the normal Masters entry requirements, currently a H2.2 (or higher) honours degree in electronic or electrical engineering,
other cognate engineering disciplines, including applied physics or computer science. The Masters Qualifier Course allows students to attempt
modules from the set of Masters modules. To gain entry to registration on one of the Masters programmes, a student on the Masters Qualifier Course
must have passed 30 credits, following the Transfer Requirements. Modules passed can be used for credit against a Masters, Graduate Diploma or
Graduate Certificate award if transfer to the Masters register is successful. The Masters Access Course itself does not carry an award – its sole
purpose is to offer an applicant an opportunity to gain access to the possibility of a Masters award where they have not previously met the normal entry requirements.
