Tertiary Degrees with CMETB

New pathways through further education to higher education
With CMETB, you will have the opportunity to start a degree locally, gain practical skills and real-world experience and finish out your degree with Atlantic Technological University (ATU).

The unique feature of these programmes is that participants can embark on their higher education journey in a further education setting in CMETB  for first year and then progress on to Atlantic Technological University campus of choice upon successful completion of the initial year.

The delivery of each programme will take place in person at the designated CMETB Further Education and Training Centres. The curriculum and timetable will mirror that of Year 1 at ATU, ensuring that learners experience the same schedules, examination dates, and other programme criteria. Learners will also have the opportunity of attending some practical lectures on campus in ATU in first year.

These degree programmes were developed with Further Education and Training and Higher Education colleges. The Tertiary programmes are a transitional pathway from Further Education to Higher Education which can be driven by the career you want, not the points you get and look beyond the learner’s educational attainment and grades. Participants can commence their third-level education in a further education setting in year one and progress into a higher education college, ATU (Atlantic Technological University), after successfully completing year one.

Applying for a Tertiary Degree Programme is simple. You can apply online via FETCHcourses.ie

There will be no tuition or student contribution fees for the first year of the programme delivered through CMETB.

The standard higher education registration fees apply in subsequent years. The eligibility criteria for the free fees initiative through HEA and Student Contribution/Maintenance through SUSI will apply for the subsequent two/three/four years in ATU.
