Intel supports<br />
technology, creativity<br />
and talent at <strong>TU</strong> <strong>Dublin</strong><br />
In February 2019, <strong>TU</strong> <strong>Dublin</strong> announced a new multi-year partnership with Intel<br />
Ireland as part of a far-reaching programme of collaboration in future talent<br />
development, research and engagement.<br />
The announcement was made at a ‘Celebration of Creativity, Technology and<br />
Talent’ attended by Minister for Finance and Public Expenditure and Reform,<br />
Paschal Donohoe T.D. and Minister of State for Higher Education, Mary Mitchell<br />
O’Connor T.D. The event included the inaugural lecture in the ‘Intel Thought<br />
Leadership Series’ which was delivered by Eamonn Sinnott, General Manager,<br />
Intel Ireland, and Vice President, Technology & Manufacturing Group and<br />
graduate of <strong>TU</strong> <strong>Dublin</strong>, Kevin Street.<br />
Building on a Memorandum of Understanding signed in September 2017; the<br />
multi-year partnership focuses on many elements including the opening of the<br />
Intel Auditorium – a 250-seater lecture theatre located in the Central Quad in<br />
the <strong>TU</strong> <strong>Dublin</strong> flagship campus at Grangegorman – in September 2020. The<br />
partnership will also fund talent development activities such as the Intel Awards<br />
Programme providing scholarships to <strong>TU</strong> <strong>Dublin</strong> students in the disciplines of<br />
Mechanical, Design, Electrical and Electronic Engineering. In addition, the Intel<br />
‘Women in Technology’ Scholarship is awarded to a female <strong>TU</strong> <strong>Dublin</strong> student<br />
ambassador who will work to encourage younger women to pursue a career in<br />
science and technology.
