Past and present

Although the Technological University Dublin was only created on 1st January, 2019 when the Dublin Institute of Technology, Institute of Technology, Tallaght and Institute of Technology Blanchardstown amalgamated, the constituent colleges from which it was formed have an older history.

On 1st January 1993 Dublin Institute of Technology became an autonomous institution of higher education in Ireland with the power to award its own degrees. It was formed from the merger of six colleges based across north and south Dublin city. Dublin Institute of Technology can trace its origins back to 1887, when one of the constituent colleges, College of Technology, Kevin Street), opened. The other five colleges were the College of Music (opened originally in 1890), the College of Commerce (opened originally in 1901), the College of Marketing and Design (opened originally in 1905), the College of Technology, Bolton Street (opened originally in 1911) and the College of Catering (opened originally in 1941). The vision of these colleges was to respond to the changes in technology and therefore to provide education that was relevant to the needs of all sectors of society. This vision continued in Dublin Institute of Technology and now in Technological University Dublin.

The Institute of Technology Blanchardstown was first established in 1999, to meet the increased need for a higher educational institution in North West Dublin. The Institute of Technology Tallaght, based in South West Dublin was established as Tallaght Regional Technological College in 1992. The campuses of Blanchardstown and Tallaght will be retained.

Currently programmes are delivered on many campuses across the city of Dublin but they will be consolidated on one campus in Grangegorman, located on the north side of the city in the future. TU Dublin Grangegorman campus not only will be designed to provide modern, innovative and student centred learning facilities but also to create a new urban quarter for the city of Dublin, providing a range of amenities for the local community.
