The 2012 Sunday Times University Guide, to be published this Sunday, has named Dublin Institute of Technology as Institute of Technology of the Year for “closing the gap on the universities and consistently being ranked the top institute of technology in the nine years of the league table. It has won a plethora of other awards in the last 12 months which recognise its excellence internationally.”
Welcoming the announcement the President of DIT, Professor Brian Norton said the accolade was based on a wide range of attributes that the students and staff of DIT hold very dear. “It is very heartening that the reasons given for the award reflect the breadth of our activities and the enormous effort on the part of all colleagues and students to continually enhance the DIT student experience. For example, the panel has highlighted innovation in our programmes; strong student-staff interaction; and excellent student support services and activities. They also focused on the significant increase in our research activity and postgraduate numbers; our outstanding record in entrepreneurship and business incubation; our collaboration internationally and our record of civic engagement at home. All of these attributes contribute to the excellence of our graduates of whom we can certainly be proud. I would like to thank every student and member of staff for contributing in some way to this award.”
