Taster Days
NUI Galway is delighted to offer annual University Taster Days to TY students to explore careers and courses in Arts, Business, Law, Science and Engineering. Due to current restrictions, this year all Taster Days will be virtual.

Arts | Business | Law | Shannon College |
w/c 15 March | 15 March | 16 March | ||||
18 March | ||||||
w/c 22 March | 23 March | 22 March | 25 March | 24 March | 26 March |
Registration
The Taster Days are aimed at TY students, however we welcome participation by Fifth Year and Leaving Cert students also. We are inviting secondary schools to book their place now. The school booking form is below. Please complete it to book a place for your school.
We do not know yet if students will be joining from the school classroom (in which case there will be a link provided to the teacher) or if students will be joining from home (in which case a link will be provided to each student). We are preparing for both eventualities, therefore we are asking the organising teacher to send the ‘Student Registration Link’ below to the participating classes so we can collect their contact information.
If you have any queries about the Taster Days, please don’t hesitate to contact us on: visit@nuigalway.ie
