Msc/G.Dip Computer aided mechanical engineering/ timetables & fees help

    Hi all,

    I graduated from my B.eng CAM course in november and have decided I want to enter the Masters in computer aided mechanical & manufacturing engineering.

    Since graduating I have moved out of home and now live in the city center working full time.

    I don't want to stop working and so would like to carry out the course part time/by distance learning. Does anyone have any idea of the type of timetable involved with a 2year part time course like this?


    More importantly, I can't afford the course fees and a loan is pretty much out of the question due to previous student loans. I had a look at studentfinance.ie and unless I missed something you can only get a grant for fees if its a full time course, and only tax relief on fees is available for part time. Are there any other options open to me?

    Any help would be appreciated.


    P.s my current job is unrelated to my degree so sponsorship isn't an option.
