Beulah McManus graduated in September 2013 from the University of Limerick (UL) with a Bachelor of Science (Education) degree. Her degree specialized in the areas of physics and chemistry teaching. She is now qualified to teach physics, chemistry and the single subject of physics with chemistry to Senior Cycle classes. She is also qualified to teach science to Junior Cycle classes.
Since September, Beulah has been involved in the EU TEMI project as a post-graduate student working as part of the UL TEMI team.
