Thank you for your interest in joining Munster Technological University (MTU).
MTU was established on 1st January 2021 and is the newest University in the South-West with six campuses across Cork and Kerry. MTU have over 18,000 learners, 2,000 staff and 140 courses and programmes ranging from apprenticeships, degrees, Masters to PhDs.
The six campuses of MTU provide distinctive offerings, identities and cultures in the context of the cohesive integration into the character and identity of a single, unitary University.
As MTU continues to grow and transition, the South-West region is similarly set to realise a significant expansion in its population and enterprise activity and MTU is ready to serve to empower and enhance the region to meet the demands of the future.
This is an exciting time to join the MTU community as we continue through a period of transition and transformation. MTU is the first new university to be established in the region since 1845 and primed to make a lasting impact.
Through our distinct focus on high quality teaching, industry partnership, and community engagement and development, MTU provides significant contribution to the South-West region of Ireland.
MTU is the second of five Technological Universities to be established in Ireland. With an emphasis on collaboration, entrepreneurship, and work-placement, MTU produces work-ready graduates and provides upskilling and reskilling opportunities through close collaboration with employers.
This sets out ambitious goals and objectives to make MTU a truly great, globally competitive university.
Sustainability and equality, diversity and inclusion are strategic enablers that run through all aspects of the strategy as we continue to focus on creating the best learner and staff experience possible.
This will be achieved by promoting excellence at the University and expanding research, innovation, and entrepreneurship, which in turn will help drive social and economic development in Ireland’s South-West region.
A particular opportunity for MTU is to lead the economic opportunities and potential of climate action and digitalisation regionally and nationally through industry and community partnerships.
You will be an integral member of the University leadership team as we progress through our current strategy and the next stage of our transformation.
