MIC Launches its Second Strategic Plan
Friday 29 March 2019, saw the official launch of MIC’s Strategic Plan 2023: A Flourishing Learning Community, an ambitious plan setting out the College’s agenda and strategic priorities for the next five years, as MIC continues to make a significant educational, social and cultural impact regionally, nationally and internationally.
Included amongst the high priorities contained within the Strategic Plan were the development of a new Library/Learning Resource Centre at the Limerick campus, designed to accommodate the College’s increasing student numbers.
Other ambitious goals in the Strategic Plan include a renewal of the suite of programme offerings, including the development of new innovative programmes, responding to skills needs and policy developments; enhancement of the research culture at MIC; collaboration with regional partners UL and LIT allowing for the development of joint structured PhDs; the development of new bespoke science education strategies, providing opportunities for engagement with next generation technologies, the establishment of an interactive public space for the fusion of creative arts and STEM education, and in line with national policy, the development of an internationalisation strategy that will see a doubling of international students attending MIC.
