Laboratory Techniques Level 5

QQI Level 5 Major Award: Laboratory Techniques – 5M3807

The science sector is a stable and strong contributor to the Irish economy, employing over 24,000 people, most of whom hold a third-level qualification. This sector alone has seen growth in exports and jobs even during the worst of the current recession. This course is ideally suited for students who are interested in preparing for a career and/or further education in science. Students who undertake this course will complete modules in the core science subjects such as biology and chemistry. The mathematics module is accepted for entry to higher education courses. These modules form the basis of all first year third level science programmes. In addition, students study microbiology and anatomy and physiology, which will give students a firm foundation upon which to start their college career and a distinct advantage over students entering directly from school. This course has been tailored to prepare students directly for third level science.

Course Fees: €100
