Student Stories

Established in 1970 Dundalk Institute of Technology (DkIT) provides higher educational opportunities in Business, Engineering, Science, Computing, Nursing, Creative Media and Applied Arts at a variety of levels, from Higher Certificate to PhD level and through full-time and part-time programmes.

“The course was hugely beneficial for me in a professional capacity, offering a change in mindset and allowing me to adapt new tools to support me in how I approached projects. Since I completed the course I will be working on lean projects within the company, helping to develop a lean culture.

Exciting times ahead!”

DkIT’s Lifelong Learning Centre co-ordinates over seventy flexible part-time professional development and lifelong learning programmes. These programmes are particularly suitable for those who wish to study new topics and course areas, update their professional skills or add to their qualifications. Accredited courses are offered in the areas of Business & Accountancy, Humanities, Engineering, Computing & Creative Arts and Health & Science. Non-accredited courses and customised programmes for industry are also available.

Ciara Clarke Certificate in Lean Six Sigma (Green Belt)

“I found that the Level 6 Certificate was not too difficult a level and it meant that over a year I could get a compact course, focusing on all the areas of renewable energy and which gave me the skills and information I needed to make evaluations about the best options for me. I was also interested in DkIT because it was just on my doorstep and I knew that there was a Centre for Renewable Energy here, one of the only institutes in the country that I am aware of that has one.”
