Munster Technological University

Munster Technological University was established in 2021 as a result of the amalgamation of The Institute of Technology Tralee and Cork Institute of Technology, both of which were originally founded in the 1970’s. The University is empowered to make its own academic awards from Level 6 to Level 10 (ie. Higher Certificate to PhD) on the National Qualifications Framework.  All program design, implementation, and assessment at the University is subject to the strict academic quality assurance standards of Quality and Qualifications Ireland (QQI) – see www.qqi.ie.
