Tertiary Education Programmes

Tertiary Education Programmes

What are Tertiary Education Programmes?

Launched in 2023, tertiary education programmes are a new pathway to a bachelor’s degree. A joint further and higher education degree programme, tertiary education programmes begin in a local education and training board centre and finish in a university.

All tertiary education programmes lead to an NFQ level 7 or 8 degree.

Example

For the Bachelor of Science in Software Development, students will complete the first two years in Portlaoise Institute, followed by Years 3 and 4 in the South East Technological University (SETU).

Funding

If you are interested in pursuing a tertiary education programme, you may be eligible for:

  • a maintenance grant for the course years that take place in an education and training board centre.
  • a maintenance grant and a fee grant for the years that take place in a university.

To be eligible for these grant, the student must meet all of SUSI’s eligibility criteria.
