ATU to promote postgraduate opportunities at Mayo in-person event
Atlantic Technological University (ATU) has announced the launch of its new dedicated postgraduate campaign, 'Your Master’s, Your Way', to promote the 110 Level 9 master's awards available across the university.
With a focus on providing flexibility and choice, the campaign targets the existing undergraduate cohort at ATU, offering a wide range of programmes delivered on-campus, blended, or online, and available as full-time or part-time options.
To support the campaign, ATU has planned four in-person events across key locations, including the Mayo campus in Castlebar, providing prospective students with the opportunity to explore their postgraduate study options and learn more about fees and funding.
The events will take place as follows: ATU Galway City on Thursday, February 22, from 12 to 2 p.m.; ATU Mayo on Wednesday, March 6, from 4 to 6 p.m.; ATU Donegal on Tuesday, March 19, from 4 to 6 p.m.; ATU Sligo and ATU St. Angela's on Wednesday, April 10, from 4 to 6 p.m.
The format of each event will include two 30-minute talks, covering all master’s study options and focusing on fees and funding for master's programmes. Academic teams involved in the provision of master’s and flexible learning will be available to address queries, along with representatives from admissions, fees, careers, international, alumni, recognition of prior learning, and other support services.
ATU president Dr. Orla Flynn said: “The 'Your Master’s, Your Way' campaign reflects our commitment to providing diverse and accessible postgraduate opportunities for students. We believe in empowering individuals to pursue their academic and career goals in a way that suits their lifestyle and preferences.”
Recent graduate Zara Brady, a medical scientist in the biochemistry department in Cavan General, completed her master’s in medical science (MSc) last year at ATU, and said the research aspect of the programme was a real attraction.
“I wanted to gain more experience working in a clinical laboratory while also studying part-time,” she explained. “This course enables me to carry out meaningful research while also gaining experience working in a clinical setting due to its blended learning approach.”
