    no need to buy anything in advance.

    We'll be advising students on what they need when they turn up for induction. A laptop will be needed if students prefer to study outside the college - otherwise assignments can be completed in the labs in college. A tablet for reading notes/taking notes/participating in classes will be essential, but doesn't have to be expensive one.
    We'll give a few options in September according to personal requirements.

    Do you mean transfer into second year? This is a new degree, so we only have 1st year running in sept. Also, there would be subjects that prob wouldn't have been covered in SW dev.

    If you want to discuss your particular situation, you can email one of the Digmes lecturers, our details are on http://www.gmit.ie/castlebar/technology/bsc-hons-digmes.html
