In general, we require that prospective participants have a good science, engineering, technology or social science honours bachelor degree (2H2 or higher) from an Irish 3rd level institution or its equivalent from an overseas university. A key feature of the programme is that participants come from a wide and varied range of disciplines --- in the past we have drawn from such diverse backgrounds as Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, Architecture, Biochemistry, Built Environment, Clinical Measurement, Computer Science, Culinary Arts, Economics, Electrical Engineering, Geology, Journalism, Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Media Production, Pharmacy, Psychology, Sociology and Zoology. Indeed, the very eclectic background of participants adds to the creative milieu of the programme. In some, very limited, instances, non-standard applications will be accepted.
