Programme profile
Of all the courses and careers you can pursue, engineering is one of the most exciting. Engineers invent and design things; they make things work; they analyse and solve problems - in all sorts of fields, not just high-tech areas. For example, one of the areas that is rushing ahead at the moment is the application of electronic and mechanical engineering to biology and life sciences. Engineering solutions help patients with better diagnostic imaging, improved hearing devices, better blood vessel implants, laser surgery, etc. Engineers have designed the latest MP3 players, digital televisions, laptops and mobile phones. Engineers' work is behind industrial robots and racing cars, behind 3D cinema and airplanes, behind the latest computer games and the international space station. As engineers you can find yourselves at the heart of just about any field, from high-tech industry and medicine to financial services, energy-aware technologies and biotechnology - the cutting edge dynamic industries of tomorrow.
Many students choose to go directly onto one of our six engineering courses. However if you are unsure of your choice of course, the Common Entry into Engineering (Undenominated Entry) option is specially designed to help you find the course most suitable for you while studying fundamentals of engineering. After the first year (common to all six denominated engineering degrees in DCU), you can then pick the course you want to pursue, without restriction. Sufficient places on Year 2 are reserved for those who successfully complete the one-year Common Entry into Engineering course.
