DK886 Biopharmaceutical Science at DkIT: CAO points 2026 (last run)
DK886 is a level 8 honours degree at Dundalk Institute of Technology in Dundalk, and the CAO files it under manufacturing and processing. The CAO has published a round one points figure for it in 3 of the 7 admission years held here, from 2020 onwards.
Its lowest figure in the years held here is 242, which is where it closed in 2022.
No figure has been published for this course since 2022, so it appears to have stopped running. The CAO publishes points rather than closures, so check cao.ie (opens in a new tab) before you rule it out, and see what else teaches Biopharmaceutical Science.

Year by year
Round one is the figure most people mean by the points. Round two is what was left after the first offers went out, so it is usually lower and it is not a cut off for the year.

A dash means no comparable figure is shown for that round. It does not mean the course did not run or that no later offer is possible. Figures are read from the CAO’s published points charts. AQA means all qualified applicants were offered places. * means not all applicants on that score were offered places in that round. # marks a test, interview, portfolio or audition; v marks a new competition for available places.

Entry requirements
Points are only half of an offer. The subject requirements for this course are set by Dundalk Institute of Technology and are not published in the CAO’s points charts, so they are not on this page and nothing here should be read as saying you qualify. Check them on the institution’s own course page, and on cao.ie (opens in a new tab), before you put this on your form.
