Enterprise

Partnerships

E&CE focus on developing long-term, meaningful and mutually beneficial partnerships with industry and representative groups. We represent the College and work on many projects with a variety of different fora and groups across the region, including the Mid-West Regional Skills Forum, Innovate Limerick, The Learning Hub, Learning Limerick and Explore Engineering.

We support industry in the achievement of their own CSR and outreach work; providing the educational support and expertise on pedagogies and curriculum. . Through partnerships with organisations such as DELL, Regeneron, Microsoft, Jaguar Land Rover, Fiserv, and Becton Dickinson, we co-create impactful learning experiences that inspire the next generation of creative thinkers and problem solvers. Programmes like the MIC/DELL VEX Robotics initiative in schools across the Mid-West, as well as summer offerings such as Engage with I.T and SustainAbility, foster meaningful connections between MIC, industry, teachers, schools, and young people.

CRAFT

CRAFT, which is managed and run by E&CE, also provides opportunities to work with many industries, businesses and local organisations across the Mid-West region. Having their support ensures that our workshops and activities are relevant and up to date with the latest technologies and developments in industry. Working with industry volunteers also provides workshop participants the opportunity to meet with Scientists, Designers, Engineers, Mathematicians and Artists, and talk to them about their careers and work.
