ICGEE - The International Centre for Graduate Education in Micro- and Nano- Engineering is an inter-university, inter-disciplinary and international organisation. It brings together several third level education institutions across Ireland along with participation from the most relevant engineering accreditation body in our field, Engineers Ireland. Our vision is a National and International engineering graduate education centre capable of producing a new cadre of world-class engineering doctoral graduate able to not only participate but play a future leadership role in a diverse, globally engaged 12st century innovation society. We provide a student-centric doctoral research and education experience with a unique international flavour and perspective. This includes a global curriculum, world-class research opportunities, and the opportunity to build an international peer network amongst the next generation of internationally focused global engineering young leaders – www.icgee.ie 

INSPIRE – the Integrated NanoScience Platform for Ireland is a consortium of all Irish third level institutions with international leading research capability in nanoscience and nanotechnology. The aim of INSPIRE is to establish Ireland as an internationally-recognised centre of excellence in nanoscience research and graduate education. INSPIRE’s objective is to create a solid teaching and learning platform for postgraduate students in nanoscience and related topics and in doing so contribute to achieving the Strategy for Science, Technology and Innovation (SSTI) targets for doubling the number of high quality, well-trained post-graduates in Ireland. www.inspirenano.com
