Invite Maynooth University to Your School: Inspiring Future Pathways
The Maynooth University Schools Liaison Team is excited to offer engaging, informative talks directly to your students, either in-person or virtually. Our presentations cover a broad range of Maynooth University programmes and provide valuable insights into the CAO process and college life, helping to supplement the information students receive online and in print.
We can tailor our visits to your needs:
- In-person visits: We bring the Maynooth experience to your classroom, offering students the chance to learn about our wide range of degree programmes and progressions routes and ask questions directly.
- Virtual presentations: If an in-person visit isn't feasible, our team can deliver the same valuable information through an interactive online session.
- Specialised course talks: On request, we can arrange to present on specific courses like the Bachelor of Arts degree, providing deeper insights into fields of study.Additionally, we actively participate in Careers Fairs & Exhibitions. If you're hosting an event and would like Maynooth University to attend, please let us know. We also try to attend as many Colleges of Further Education as possible.
To request a talk or presentation, or attendance at a Career Fair or Exhibition, please reach out to our Schools Liaison Team with the following details:
- Preferred date and time
- School name and address
- Contact person’s name and email address
- Contact phone or mobile number (optional)
