Welcome

The Modular Programme in Science & Technology Studies is a part-time programme which focuses on the knowledge and skill requirements of high-tech industries.

The modular structure is designed with flexibility in mind, enabling you to balance study with work and other commitments and to accumulate credits over a time frame that suits your lifestyle. Learning is delivered via a blend of distance and online resources, on-campus tutorials and labs, and company-based projects. Tutorials take place in NUI Galway and subject to sufficient demand some may also be delivered in UL.

The programme offers awards at a level to suit you:

  • B.Sc. in Science & Technology Studies
  • Diploma in Science & Technology Studies
  • Specialist Diplomas: Environmental Sustainability, Medical Device Science, Lean & Quality Systems
  • Continuing Professional Development credit for modules taken on a standalone basis for the purposes of up-skilling or career change
