Waterford Institute of Technology (WIT) is a university-level institution in the South-East of Ireland with over 10,000 students and almost 1000 staff. WIT offers tuition and research programs in many areas up to doctoral level. Over the last 30 years the Business School at WIT has earned its reputation through teaching excellence, the delivery of innovative values-led programmes, and ultimately through the recognition earned by our alumni in almost every walk of life. At the heart of the dynamic and exciting South-East region of Ireland, the School is a unique learning community, attracting outstanding students nationally and internationally. While we like to think they are attracted to our ethos of education through interaction, small class sizes, and diversity of learning methods, it may well be the special quality of life that our students enjoy; a vibrant campus with significant residential population, the ancient and cosmopolitan city of Waterford and the great outdoors of mountains and sea that lie just beyond the edge of the city.
