The number of places on Nursing Programmes at DCU is tightly regulated and guided by the Nursing Board. The Nursing Careers Centre (managed by An Bord Altranais) publish an annual guide for Nursing applicants - "Nursing/Midwifery - A career for you" with full information on the number of Nursing places available per year in each Higher Education Institute. I attach details of the number of general nursing CAO places offered by Dublin City University in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013, as requested by the deputy.
Programme - Year | 2009 | 2010 | 2011 | 2012 | 2013 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
DC215 BSc in Nursing (General) | 68 | 73 | 79 | 71 | 71 |
DC225 Mature Code - BSc in Nursing (General) | 16 | 10 | 13 | 12 | 18 |
Total Number of CAO Acceptances | 84 | 83 | 92 | 83 | 89 |
