MH201 - Elective Streams

Go to Course - Bachelor Of Science
Jump to

Overview

Elective streams allow you to make more of your university education, and to take better advantage of the world-class lecturers and interesting subject material that Maynooth has to offer. They may help to broaden your perspective (e.g. by taking an interdisciplinary topic), allow you to interact with students from other disciplines, or help you develop transferable skills for the future in a way that complements your main disciplinary studies (e.g. study of a modern language). An elective stream amounts to one-sixth of the total course work for the year.

From September 2015 we will offer a number of elective streams on a pilot basis to second year students. Each stream consists of a 5-credit module in semester 1 followed by a second 5-credit module in semester 2. These elective modules will count towards progression towards your degree in the same way as other modules you take in your main subjects.

Registration for electives will be subject to enrolment limitations, and also must be compatible with the timetabling and other requirements of your main subjects. Some combinations of electives and subjects are excluded.
