MSc QUALIFYING EXAMINATION

Note: Every effort has been made to ensure that the programme and module content as described in the University's Calendar and Book of Modules for the 2021-22 academic year are accurate. However, due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, no guarantee is given that programme/module content, delivery and assessment may not be altered, cancelled, replaced, augmented or otherwise amended. Any changes will ensure the same competencies and Learning Outcomes are met. Programme and/or Module Coordinators will communicate any such changes to students.

A graduate who has not reached the required standard at the BSc (Hons) Degree Examination (and who has presented for the Examination in UCC) may be permitted to proceed to the MSc Degree by Research or Taught provided he/she sits (with the permission of the College) for the BSc (Hons) Degree in Food Science and Technology Examination as a qualifying test and attains at least Second Class Honours standard i.e. 50% therein. Such a candidate may not sit for the qualifying test until at least one year after he/she has obtained his/her primary degree. The approval of a candidate's application to present for the MSc Qualifying Examination shall remain valid only for a period of two years dating from the commencement of the session in which the application is considered and approved.
