    Can anyone please help me and shed some light on this course? I researched it but I would love if someone can confirm with me about the course.

    I wanted to get into engineering but I didn't get the result I needed in math. My other choices were science in UCD and Trinity where i would then choose to go into physics. But because of the massive increase in points (50 point jump for UCD) I got my last choice which was Applied Physics in DCU.

    Can anyone please help me and confirm that I will still get a similar degree in this as I would if i went into physics through the science course in UCD or Trinity?

    Thank you very much for the help

    Hi Pred, Unfortunately I don't know very much about UCD or Trinitys courses. DCU applied physics is in my opinion a good course, I assume you're more interested in working in industry or doing some kind of practical research after you've got your degree? If you're still undecided my advice would be to call the physics dept. in DCU and have a chat with them about it, I'm sure they would have no problem helping you out...

    Edit: Here's the dcu webpage for the school of applied sciences, G Hughes is the man to talk to :-)
