Higher Certificate in Science Biological and Environmental Studies
This 2-year course provides a basis in the biological sciences (biology and chemistry) along with introductory ecology, environmental and earth science. It provides a foundation for continuation to level 7 and 8 qualifications in this area, (especially MT 880 Wildlife Biology) and can be used to enter the workforce directly. The course involves a mix of theory, laboratory practice and field activity. Each week includes a full day of field work, at different locations in wildlife-rich Co. Kerry and beyond. In first year, a foundation in biology, chemistry and numeracy is provided, and this is built on in second year with modules in botany, ecology, zoology and microbiology. Practical modules in outdoor skills and Geographical Information Systems are also taken. The course provides insight into the kingdoms of life, giving a strong base on which to build deeper, more focused wildlife study. This programme is unique to the MTU Kerry Campus and attracts students from across Ireland and beyond. Kerry’s stunning and diverse natural landscape is an ideal location for the programme. The course provides a highly marketable blend of biological and environmental studies skills, both in field and laboratory. Field sites include a variety of wildlife habitats and special areas of conservation, as well as environmental management facilities like water treatment, waste water treatment facilities, and wind farms.

Bachelor of Science Coaching and Sports Performance
The Coaching and Sports Performance programme aims to develop, from evidence- based theory and practice, the students’ ability to lead physical activity, to coach athletes (individually and in teams), and manage sports teams and individual athletes. Graduates will also have the knowledge, skills, competence and first-hand experience to design and lead strength and conditioning programmes and to design and lead performance training programmes. Graduates will be able to safely, and within context, advise on performance-related nutrition, apply the principles of sports psychology in context, and apply ancillary techniques in recovery from exercise, injury management or others in support of optimal sports performance and recovery. The strength of the programme delivery model is that students experience a significant amount of applied practical time during their studies. The applied practice elements include independent studies, workshops, group discussions, activity leadership sessions, client (group and individual) engagement, and other activities that provide authenticity to the students’ experience.

Bachelor of Science (Honours) Pharmaceutical Science
Recent advances in pharmaceutical science have focused on the rapid development of quality medicinal products that are safer, more effective and increasingly convenient for the patient. This has led to a significant demand for scientists with knowledge and skills related to the biopharmaceutical area. Pharmaceuticals are drugs made from a series of chemical reactions and biopharmaceuticals are medicines made using living organisms such as bacteria, yeast and mammalian cells. The pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries comprise Ireland’s largest manufacturing sector and need highly trained graduates. This degree is designed to develop your practical skills and competence to work as a laboratory scientist. The focus of the level 8 degree is on the analysis, design, production and regulatory compliance of pharmaceutical products. First year delivers core science modules and fundamental practical skills training and subsequent years build on these areas. Students also cover the relevant key areas of chemistry and biology, such as Applied Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Biochemistry, Pharmaceutical Microbiology, Molecular Biology and Cell Culture.
