Profile
The DCU BSc in Science Education provides students with a Teaching Council accredited concurrent degree qualification in post-primary initial teacher education, which combines the study of three curricular subjects with teacher education studies. Upon successful completion of the programme, graduates can directly register with the Teaching Council as qualified to teach two subjects from Physics, Mathematics, and Chemistry to Leaving Certificate Level. Mathematics and science play essential roles in our everyday lives, and as a second-level teacher, you’ll be securing Ireland’s future by developing citizens that are informed decision makers and scientists that are innovative and creative. The programme is delivered by an interdisciplinary team of discipline experts from across DCU’s Institute of Education and Faculty of Science and Health, thus acquiring scientific and mathematical knowledge along with educational expertise. Students registered in the programme also benefit from the unique opportunity to participate in the STEM Teacher Internship Programme, an initiative developed by DCU, Accenture, and the 30% Club that facilitates DCU STEM teachers completing a 12-week paid internship in the industry during the summer of their third year.
Notes
"Ireland bases its tuition rates on residence (3 of the last 5 years living in the EU) despite whether you're an EU citizen or not. In other words, only those who have resided in an EU country 3 of the last 5 years are eligible for the discounted rates."
Admissions Requirements
High school diploma including any honours subjects with a minimum GPA of 3.0. Applicants who have completed an alternative qualification may be considered for direct entry into Undergraduate programmes at DCU.
