DDLETB’S First Degree Kicks off in BFEI

BFEI are delighted to announce the launch of their Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Politics, Society and Media. This is the first tertiary award within the DDLETB.

This Tertiary Degree was co-designed and will be co-delivered between TU Dublin, Dublin and Dun Laoghaire ETB and City of Dublin ETB Colleges. Students will attend years 1 and 2 at their chosen further education college (Blackrock Further Education Institute, City of Dublin FET College Rathmines, City of Dublin FET College Ballyfermot) and years 3 and 4 at TU Dublin. This tertiary award will provide students with, for the first time, a seamless pathway from Further Education to Higher Education. The students starting their degree-journey in BFEI this September will graduate in four years from TUD with an Honours BA.

It has been widely recognised that students need more diverse and better aligned learning and development opportunities as well as a variety of pathways to enable students’ personal growth, the development of talents, and the promotion of lifelong learning. This year, BFEI opened the door to students who wish to acquire a degree but up to now have been locked out of the system.

It was with great excitement that the first cohort of students registered in BFEI and began their Bachelor of Arts journey.
