UCD Pre- Masters Pathway (PMP) Programme is designed primarily for international students who meet the academic entry requirements of their chosen UCD graduate taught programme but do not yet meet the English language requirements for direct entry to that programme. The PMP Programme is generally available as a one or two semester programme. The two semester programme begins in September with the 1 semester programme beginning in January. Both conclude in May after final examinations. Students starting in January are generally required to possess a higher level of English than those starting in September. The PMP Programme is composed primarily of English language classes delivered by UCD's Applied Language Centre with students also taking a cultural module (in the 1st semester) and a study skills module (in the 2nd semester). Students will also attend some undergraduate level modules related to their chosen Masters programme to help with familiarisation of subject delivery in UCD as well as helping students improve their academic English.
