Hide-Entry/Eligibility Requirements
To be eligible for consideration for a programme an applicant must possess the minimum entry requirements for that programme.
Where a programme requirement is 2 or 3 honours, grade H5 or better on Higher Level Leaving Certificate papers is needed to meet such a requirement.
Where a specific grade is required in a subject (H4, O3 etc) an applicant must achieve that grade or better in order to be eligible for consideration (H = Higher Level; O = Ordinary Level).
In the case of both Higher and Ordinary Level Leaving Certificate results, grades lower than H7 (Higher) or 06 (Ordinary) are not acceptable for eligibility purposes or for points calculation.
For the purpose of meeting minimum entry requirements, results from any number of sittings of the Irish Leaving Certificate Examination may be combined.
An applicant’s examination score will be calculated by adding together the points scored in the best six subjects in a single sitting of the Irish Leaving Certificate Examination.
Matriculation Examinations will not be accepted either for the purpose of meeting minimum entry requirements or for calculating examination scores.
Demand usually exceeds the number of places available and therefore examination results better than the minimum entry requirement are likely to be required.
When a number of applicants have the same points score, a random number is attached to the score for each course preference. This will then determine the position of each applicant on the waiting lists for offers.
Bonus Points Maths (Irish Leaving Certificate)
25 bonus points will continue to be awarded for Higher Level Mathematics for H6 grades and above. The bonus points will only be relevant where that subject is scored as one of the applicant’s best six subjects for points purposes.
Foundation Level Mathematics
The Institute will accept Foundation Level Maths for the purposes of entry requirements the case of any programme where Higher or Ordinary Level Maths is not a requirement. Please check the programme page to ensure you are aware of the individual maths requirement for that programme.
Points will be awarded as follows:-
F1 = 20 points
F2 = 12 points
Foundation Level Irish
For the most part the Institute will not consider Foundation Level Irish for the purposes of entry requirements or for points, however A grade F3 in Foundation level Irish is acceptable for meeting the minimum entry requirements for some Higher Certificate programmes. Students with an F3 in Foundation level Irish must have passed five other subjects with a minimum grade of O6 including Maths, students should check on individual course pages to determine if their foundation Irish grade is sufficient.

Hide-What is... Digital Marketing?
Are you interested in consumer behaviour, communication and marketing? Do you wonder why some brands become global icons? Do you want to use your creativity to connect with online communities across social media? Would you like to be the bright spark behind the next big digital marketing trend? Marketing is the discipline of understanding how and why consumers buy products and services, and using those insights to satisfy consumer wants and needs. Digital marketing is marketing for the modern connected consumer. It combines traditional marketing with the latest digital tools and media to help businesses reach, connect and promote their products to a wider audience, using strategies that inform, captivate and engage. Alongside their offline marketing activities, businesses and brands now recognise the value of having an active online presence. By 2020, it’s estimated that over 60% of all money spent on advertising in Ireland will be on digital advertising.
Subjects include Marketing, Web Design, Social Media, Advertising, Financial Planning, Online Advertising, Consumer Behaviour and Market Research. In Year 4, you’ll study subjects such as Business Intelligence, Market Dynamics and Consumer Journey Mapping, and can specialise in areas such as project management, strategic management, international selling and sales, business strategy and marketing consultancy.
Work Placement: There’s an optional 15-week work placement in Year 3, Semester 1.
Postgraduate Study: On graduation, you may continue to postgraduate study at TU Dublin or elsewhere.
IT Requirements: Students on this course will be required to have a high spec PC/Laptop (i.e. able to run Win 10, an AV solution and Office comfortably, be able to use Wi-fi and camera to attend online classes, use other hardware intensive software such as Adobe Cloud Premium suite, Visual Studio, AutoCAD, ProEng, so needs high RAM, larger SSD, Graphics acceleration, etc.)
