OTHER DETAIL:

This is an ESF Plus Funded Course. Once you have registered please continue and complete the ESF Participant Form.

Overview
This programme provides candidates with the scientific background required to work in craft and traditional breweries and distilleries. The modules on the programme are closely aligned with the Institute of Brewing and Distilling (IBD) syllabi for the Diploma in Brewing and Diploma in Distilling examinations (specifically Diploma 1 and 2).


Course Delivery
The programme takes 1.5 years to complete.

It is expected that classes will be conducted online and/or live streamed from campus and that laboratory practicals will take place in small groups in MTU Bishopstown Campus on two separate Saturdays (10am – 4pm). Therefore, it will be possible for students to take these modules and only have to attend campus for labs, the final exam, and any site visits.

Attendance at laboratories is mandatory whereas attendance at site visits is not. Lecture sessions will take place from 6.30pm – 8.30pm on Tuesday evenings. The programme is delivered over 3 Semesters.


Award
On successful completion of three modules, graduates will be awarded a MTU Certificate in Brewing & Distilling (Level 7 on the National Framework of Qualifications).
