On Tuesday 11th March, to celebrate 50 years of producing graduates from its Bishopstown Campus, Munster Technological University (MTU) is delighted to announce a guest lecture to mark this special occasion.  This event will offer a unique opportunity to reflect on five decades of achievement in higher education while also looking ahead to what the next 50 years will bring for the University.

 

The event will feature two distinguished speakers:
