TU Dublin is located in Dublin, Ireland. Dublin is one of the world’s major hubs for the Pharmaceutical and Information and Communications Technology (ICT) industries, with nine of the top ten companies in each sector calling Ireland their European home.

TU Dublin engages with potential applicants for its STEM discipline programmes through a variety of tailored events, include open days, Science festivals and a Computing Academy programme.
TU Dublin has taken steps to increase the involvement of women in technical disciplines, including through the organisation of women-specific recruitment and engagement events. TU Dublin is an active participant in the Athena Swan initiative which was established to encourage and recognise commitment to advancing the careers of women in STEM employment in higher education and research.
