University of Limerick graduates ‘most sought after’ in jobs market

University of Limerick graduates are the most sought after of any Irish college, the president of UL has said.

Prof Don Barry, speaking at a conferring ceremony yesterday, said UL graduates were more likely to be employed after graduation than any other graduate in the country.

“The employment rate of UL graduates one year after graduation is more than 20% higher than the average for the other six Irish universities. We call that the UL edge and it is something of which this university is very proud,” he said.
