Science SCU1

First year for the DN200 Science programme is designed to enable you to sample a number of subjects in your chosen area but also includes some core subjects required for all degrees, for example Mathematics. It ensures that you have the foundations in the subjects you require for your degree but it also allows students who have not taken a subject at second level to study it at university. The choices you make in first year will have a bearing on your final degree subject(s). In first year, students have a mixture of lectures and practical classes every day. Typically, lectures take place in the mornings, practicals in the afternoons. In addition to the subject modules you must study as part of your degree, you also take two additional modules called electives, which you may choose from anywhere across the university, including Science.

You may apply to study abroad for either a semester or a year through the Erasmus programme or on a non-EU exchange.
 

UCD has over 200 Erasmus partners in Europe and an increasing number of non-EU exchange agreements with universities in the USA, Canada, Australia, Japan and elsewhere.
