The University of Limerick (UL), Mary Immaculate College (MIC) and Limerick Institute of Technology (LIT) combined have been awarded over half of the €1million HEA Erasmus+ International Credit Mobility Fund for supporting the transfer of students and staff to countries outside of Europe for teaching, training and research collaboration.

From September, Limerick Institute of Technology will be offering a degree programme in Ennis and it marks the first time that individuals will be able to study to degree level in the town.
