Why study at NCI?

We’re committed to helping you achieve your potential. Our full and part-time courses can help you upskill, advance in your career or return to employment.

We offer recognised qualifications, great student support and a friendly city centre campus. We are focused on ensuring each student receives the support and assistance necessary to realise their potential.

There are many great reasons to choose NCI…

1. Highly relevant courses

Through our schools of business and computing we offer internationally recognised full and part-time programmes accredited through QQI. We work closely with industry and professional bodies such as Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development, Institute of Commercial Management, Irish Institute of Pensions Management, the Sales Institute of Ireland and others to ensure courses closely aligned to industry needs.

2. Small class sizes and student support

Our small group teaching model means students often tell us they find NCI a very supportive environment to study in. Students prosper in an atmosphere where they get to know lecturers, staff and their fellow students. We also have great student support in place if you are having any difficulty adjusting to third level.

 3. Friendly atmosphere

Many students find the general atmosphere and friendliness of NCI to be the most valuable part of their NCI experience. We welcome international students from all over the globe and domestic students of all ages. You will find a welcoming community of learners and staff and definitely make some friends along the way.

4. Experienced faculty

We work with a talented array of full-time and associate stadd. They are experts in their fields and combine the highest academic standards with industry experience and a real commitment to the learning of their students.

5. Modern city centre campus

Our purpose-built campus includes a spacious atrium area, tiered lecture theatres, modern computer labs and smaller executive suites and boardrooms. We have excellent transport links with the Luas and mainline train stations on our doorstep.

6. Tailored training

If you are part of an organisation seeking bespoke training we would be delighted to speak to you. Through our professional education and training division we are the educational partner for a number of corporate bodies.

So, whether you’re looking for a short part-time course, considering a Masters or coming through the CAO system, NCI can be a great choice for you. See what some of our students have to say…
