    Hi I'm looking to do a 2 year,NFQ Level 8 course.
    I know there is 3 year ones but 2 would be ideal.
    And if they were health science related it'd be a dream :D
    Thanks in advance :)

    I don't think there is any as far as I'm aware. There's 3 year degrees but I don't think any relate to health sciences though !

    I'm pretty sure Level 8 requires a minimum of X amount of credits over a certain time period. Why do you want something so short? It would be fairly incomparable to someone having sat a 3 or 4 year Level 8. I know they are the same on paper but the work load difference would be huge.

    You maybe could collapse two semester's into your summer terms, but you'd be effectively doing a 3 year course over a solid 2 years (No break) I'm not aware of any course where you can do this expect Master's level.

    There are people who have transferred from a level 7 Science Degree to a Level 8 Science to start in 3rd year. So effectively, 2 years of level 8 but with recognition of prior learning.
