Semester 2 Module Exemptions

As we head into the new semester some students will consider applying for an exemption for one or more modules. This is a good idea if you have already covered all of the content in a module in previous study, or through work experience.

To apply for an exemption you need to do the following:

• Complete the exemption form available at the link on the left-hand-side of the blog.
• On the exemption form outline in detail how your previous study or work experience matches the learning outcomes of the module for which you are applying for an exemption (full learning outcomes for each module are available in the Programme Document linked to at the left of this blog).
• Provide full documentary evidence of your previous study or work experience.
• Return the completed exemption form plus all relevant documentation to cspg@dit.ie.

Applications for exemptions should be submitted before the Friday the 1st of February 2013 and will be considered by the School of Computing Exemptions Committee during the week starting on the 4th of February.
 
Please note:  Modules for which an exemption is granted attract a fee of 50% of the original module fee.
