What will I learn?

This programme is for you if you have a passion for mathematics, for problem solving and for deep understanding of the structures which underlie much of everyday experience. The programme may be of particular benefit to teachers or potential teachers, who would like to include mathematics among the subjects that they are eligible to teach at Leaving Certificate level. If you have already been exposed to a limited amount of University-level mathematics and would like to find a path into teaching or more advanced studies in the subject, then this programme provides the necessary bridge. After completing the Higher Diploma Mathematical Studies you will achieve a level of competence equivalent to that of a Mathematics major in a three-year honours degree. The programme covers the mathematics necessary to qualify the student to teach mathematics to Leaving Certificate level when combined with a Professional Master of Education PME.DURATION:1 Years 2 YearsNEXT INTAKE:20242025 September
