But don't just take our word...
“I graduated with distinction from WIT in 2004 and was awarded a National Diploma in Engineering in Building Services. I had been working as an Engineer prior to enrolling at WIT and continued with my work throughout the period of my studies. I was working in collaboration with a refrigeration design consultancy on a large industrial project in Saudi Arabia and upon completion of the course at WIT, secured a position as design engineer with Johnston Reid & Associates in Dublin who are a progressive building services design consultancy. I am now working on a range of building projects including Hotels, Office/Retail Parks, Schools and Apartment Developments.
I was very impressed with the all-round education which I received at WIT. I am very grateful for the encouragement and assistance I received from the lecturers, staff and fellow students. In my day-to-day problem solving I am regularly brought back in my mind to a particular lecture to find a solution”.
