Overview

The Technological University of the Shannon: Midlands Midwest is Ireland’s third technological university. The university began its operation in 2021 when two institutes of technology merged, the Athlone Institute of Technology and the Limerick Institute of Technology. Both these institutes — AIT (estd. 1970) & LIT (estd. 1975) were among reputed centres of tech studies.

Home to more than 14,000 students, TUS is based out of the central Irish city of Athlone (two campuses) and operates across four other cities (one campus each): Limerick City, Thurles, Clonmel, and Ennis. The institute is one of Ireland’s newest and most unique technological universities, with an enormous focus on creating fresh ideas and promoting research-based learning.

Technological University of the Shannon: Midlands Midwest is known for celebrating campus diversity. International students at TUS represent over 100 nationalities, showcasing the university’s metropolitan atmosphere.
