Make TUS your CAO choice
Thu, Jan 20, 2022
The Technological University of the Shannon is made up of six diverse and vibrant campuses in Athlone, Limerick, Thurles, Clonmel, and Ennis, which all come together as one united college community. Smaller class sizes at TUS mean you will be more than just a number and lecturers will know your name, allowing you benefit more easily from the full extent of their expertise and insights. And after class, outstanding sports facilities alongside a host of clubs and societies all help to create a sociable and fun place to study.
As well as having excellent access and support programmes in place, TUS has taken the time to weave a very distinct culture of friendliness and openness into every corner of each campus. From lecture halls to coffee docks and from canteens to corridors, the warm, friendly, and inclusive campus culture makes students feel right at home. Right from the start, you will meet lots of people just like you and many more a whole lot different.
