The Changing Landscape in terms of Designations, Mergers and Alliances
DkIT is unequivocally committed to achieving Technological University (TU) status. This will future-proof the Institute in meeting the educational, economic, social and cultural needs of the region. In doing so, the Institute will ensure that greater numbers of students are attracted to the region and will contribute to economic, social and cultural fabric within the communities by choosing to stay and work in the region after they graduate.
An important aspect of DkIT’s collaborative engagements with other institutions is the existence of ‘focal points’ or common interests, which serve to give both parties mutual benefits. The Institute has an established and valued strategic alliance with DCU, NEFHEA, the MEND cluster and Cross-Border Partner Institutions and these will be further enhanced.
