NUIMAt NUI Maynooth we are embracing the challenge of delivering world-class postgraduate education programmes, and in 2006 we established three new Faculty-based graduate schools in Arts, Philosophy and Celtic Studies; Social Sciences; Science and Engineering. We have built on our traditional areas of academic strength to create a number of innovative and internationallyrecognised research centres in areas such as Irish Cultural and Historical Traditions, Geocomputation, Immunology, Applied mathematics of complex systems (Hamilton Institute), and Regional Planning and Spatial Analysis. These research centres complement and extend the excellent research and teaching carried out in academic departments and disciplines which span the Arts, Humanities and Sciences and Engineering.

Within this diverse system we have developed an extensive range of postgraduate degrees, including doctoral research programmes, taught and research masters degree courses and postgraduate diploma programmes. Full details of all courses can be found on our website at graduatestudies.nuim.ie.
