    Hi guys,

    I'm looking at doing the above Masters in UCD, starting in September. I was wondering what it's like. My primary degree is in Business Studies and Human Resource Mgt and it's been seven years since I've looked at anything sciencey! I was wondering if I'm going to be a huge disadvantage with this and if the course is even worth pursuing due to my SEVERE lack of science skills! I loved science at school and did chemistry in my leaving.
    Any help gratefully received,

    Sara

    I was looking at that course as well but the 6.9k fee is a bit off putting. With regards to your ability to get through it I'd say u'd be grand but do they look for a science undergrad as a prerequiisite? Where do you think the potential jobs would be?

    I talked to Karen in the post grad office and she spoke to the course director about my primary degree and she said that it wouldn't be a problem to get in with it. Unfortunately I don't know anymore than what's on the website about jobs and such. :( that is the one thing that is turning me off, the price tag isnt, cos most post grads, that I've looked at have been around the 4-6k bracket.
