organisation profile
- NUI Maynooth is a dynamic and innovative university of students from every county in Ireland as well as an increasing number of international students. Situated 25km west of Dublin, it is located in Irelands only university town, Maynooth, which combines the historical legacy of its medieval origins with a present day location on the fringes of Dublin, adjacent to the Irish and European headquarters of many multi national high technology companies.
National University of Ireland, Maynooth is a vibrant, rapidly expanding third level institution with more than 6,000 students. The university offers undergraduate and postgraduate courses in the Arts, Science, Engineering, Philosophy and Celtic Studies. A 100 million building programme has recently been completed, resulting in the most up to date academic facilities and student accommodation. The campus also possesses some of the finest state of the art research facilities in Ireland.
National University of Ireland, Maynooth is one of four constituent universities of the federal National University of Ireland. The university traces its origins directly to the foundation in 1795 of St Patricks College, Maynooth and it is Irelands second oldest university. In that year, and as a direct consequence of the French Revolution and the turmoil then sweeping Europe, a college was established at Maynooth to accommodate the several hundred Irish students stranded at colleges abroad. In 1910 St Patricks College became a recognized college of the newly established National University of Ireland and in 1997 the faculties of Arts, Science, Philosophy and Celtic Studies were given separate legal status as a constituent university of the National University of Ireland.
