About This Course

If you are interested in Biology and Mathematics, and think you might like to teach these subjects at post-primary level, then this degree subject may be for you. It is designed so that you study mathematics, biology and education in an integrated manner. Throughout the course you will gain teaching experience through structured educational placements.

The four-year BSc Biology, Mathematics & Education leads directly to the one-year MSc Mathematics and Science Education. On completion of both degrees, you are fully qualified to teach post-primary Biology and Mathematics to Higher Level Leaving Certificate Level and Science to Junior Certificate Level.

Information on all our courses including pathways, internships and careers information is available in the UCD Science Undergraduate Courses Entry 2025 Brochure (PDF).

Biology, Mathematics & Education is one of the degree subjects in the Science, Mathematics & Education stream in the common entry Science course.

Students study the modules required for the Biology, Mathematics & Education in first year and will study modules for a minimum of two degree subjects in second year. Students interested in Science, Mathematics & Education degree subjects also have the choice to pursue the modules required for degree subjects in other streams within the common entry Science course. At the end of second year, students choose their degree subject. As we offer a number of degree subjects in each stream, students have a number of similar degree subjects to choose from and if a degree subject is oversubscribed, places are allocated on a competitive basis. 

For more information on choosing a degree subject at the end of Second Year, visit the Science, Mathematics & Education stream page.

This is a sample set of modules that a Biology, Mathematics & Education student could study each year in UCD.

After graduating with their BSc, students proceed to the MSc in Mathematics & Science Education.

Placements are integrated into this 5-year course from first year, with all undergraduate placements arranged for you.

During the last two years of the course, students complete year-long placements at two different post-primary schools. These placements are designed so that students not only obtain teaching experience, but also gain a whole-of-school experience through participating in parent-teacher meetings, timetabling, etc. The complete five-year course is fully accredited by the Teaching Council of Ireland.

My fascination with various scientific disciplines led me to discover the UCD Science course with diverse options in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, and Education. Motivated by a deep interest in people, pedagogical practices, and the intricacies of mathematical learning, I finalized my subject selection in Biology, Mathematics, and Education. This choice offered an all-encompassing STEM education experience, where the theoretical knowledge acquired during lectures served as the bedrock for implementing effective teaching methodologies. This degree subject includes twoyear- long placements, and these significantly contributed to the development of my identity as a Mathematics and Science educator.
