The Student Experience

 

“Completion of this world-class facility confirms NUI Galway’s position as one of the premier Engineering Schools in the country. This shows great confidence in the role of Engineering and Technology in the economic development of the West of Ireland and we look forward to contributing significantly to the future success of our region.  We now have the physical environment to match our first-class range of degree programmes and leading-edge research.”

Dean of Engineering & Informatics, Professor Gerry Lyons
