University or Technological University: Which to choose?
In Ireland, the traditional universities - Trinity College Dublin, University College Dublin, University College Cork, Galway - offer four-year Honours Bachelor's degrees, backed up by strong research activity. They are well suited to academic profiles who are considering a Master's degree or an international career path.
Technological Universities (TU Dublin, Munster TU, Atlantic TU...) were born of the merger of the former Institutes of Technology. More applied, they combine professional projects, long internships and industrial partnerships, while also offering “Honours” bachelor's degrees.
This is the ideal path for those who want a concrete curriculum and a network of companies right from the first year.
The choice depends above all on the style of learning you're looking for: research and theory at universities, practical experience and rapid integration at Technological Universities.
