Work Placements

Work Placement

We work with employers and academic colleagues to support meaningful placement opportunities for TU Dublin students. Placement activity is coordinated by Faculties across the University.

The Career Development Centre can assist employers to promote placement opportunities to students and build relationships with Faculty colleagues. 

How to Get Involved with Work Placement Programmes

If as an employer, you are interested in engaging with TU Dublin to offer a placement to students from our Aungier St, Blanchardstown, Bolton St., Grangegorman or Tallaght campuses, our placement registry  below provides the list of programmes and the Faculty contact persons.  It indicates the duration and commencement date of the placement and point of contact.
