Visit UCD’s Quinn School of Business Study Abroad webpage for information about modules. Please make note of the following:
- Students can select modules beginning with the number 1, 2, and 3, i.e. ACC10060, BMGT20080, and MIS30020.
- Modules ending in a letter e.g. S, D, J etc, are NOT available to undergraduate students.
- Generally speaking, modules beginning with 1 are introductory level, beginning with 2 are intermediate, and beginning with 3 are advanced level and students should pay particular attention to prior learning/prerequisite requirements.
