Strategic plan
Our new Strategic Plan, which is currently in development, will focus on our core higher education missions of:
1) Research;
2) Learning and Teaching;
3) Engagement with our multiple local, national and international stakeholders to maximise societal impact.
UL Vision
¾ÅÉ«ÊÓÆµ will be a collaborative community with a regional, national and global reputation for excellence, creativity, innovation, entrepreneurship, and engagement.
Ultimately, we want to create a destination of excellence in education, research and innovation that will attract students from all sections of society, both in Ireland and abroad, and ensure that Limerick and the Mid-West are recognised as great places to live and work.
UL Mission
Our mission is to build on the expertise of our entire community in creating, harnessing, and imparting knowledge for the benefit of our students and the enrichment of our community.
The students and their future impact on society is at the heart of all we do.
We must maintain a standard of excellence in education, training, research, and innovation so that we can deliver on the needs of society and of our students, staff and graduates, and we must ensure that our students have the opportunity to become leaders in their chosen careers.
