    Years back if you did Applied Physics and Instrumentation in CIT you could after getting your Diploma, do your degree in Applied Physics and Semi Conductor Technology, 'twas discontinued I believe as so few opted for it, most folks did the degree in Applied Physics and Instrumentation too.

    Anyway, I'd have a look at similar course to that, you don't have to do engineering to work as an engineer :)

    There are similar course in Dublin :)

    The more obvious choice would be Electrical or Electronical engineering or maybe even computer science if you really like the puters. Often not a bad idea to look beyond the obvious.
