Overview

At the end of Third Year of the BE (Electrical and Electronic) Engineering Degree students may register for the BE (Hons) / ME Pathway (Electrical and Electronic). Students who choose not / are not eligible to register for the BE (Hons) / ME Pathway (Electrical and Electronic) will continue to Fourth Year of the BE (Hons) (Electrical and Electronic).

Entry to the ME in Electrical and Electronic Engineering

Entry to the ME in Electrical and Electronic Engineering is determined based on student performance during Third Year. Students who pass the Third University Examination in Electrical and Electronic Engineering, achieving at least a 2H2 will be eligible to register for Fourth Year of the ME Pathway (Electrical and Electronic). In the case of students that have completed one full semester or a full year of studies abroad during Third Year, performance during the Second Year is taken into consideration, with a minimum of 2H1 in the Second Year Examination required for eligibility, in addition to passing the Third Year examination. Students who are eligible to register for the BE (Hons) / ME Pathway (Electrical and Electronic), but choose not to, will continue to Fourth Year of the BE (Hons) (Electrical and Electronic). Students passing the Third University Examination in Electrical and Electronic Engineering who are ineligible to register for the BE (Hons) / ME Pathway (Electrical and Electronic) will continue to Fourth Year of the BE (Hons) (Electrical and Electronic).

Change of Registration to Fourth Year of the BE (Hons) (Electrical and Electronic)

A student may elect to change registration to Fourth Year of the BE (Hons) provided formal notification is received by the Student Records and Examinations Office (sreo@ucc.ie) before the end of Week 8 of Semester 1 of Fourth Year.
