Critics of quality of Irish graduates ‘wrong’

The growth of inward jobs investment in Ireland is evidence that critics of the quality of Irish graduates are wrong, says the president of Maynooth University.

He will today launch a reformed curriculum aimed at producing graduates with an appreciation of many study disciplines for a changing economy and society.

While the main changes will take effect for new entrants in 2016, students beginning degrees at Maynooth this autumn will see more benefits in second year.
