This year, TU Dublin welcomed its first group of Civil Engineering students from Nanjing to the Bolton Street campus, while students studying Electronic and Mechanical Engineering, along with Pharmaceutical Science, are based at the university’s Tallaght campus. These joint programmes provide students with a unique opportunity to gain world-class education in Ireland, fostering cross-cultural exchange and innovation.
