IRELAND

The National College of Ireland (NCI) is an Irish not-for-profit, state-aided third-level education institution founded in 1951.

As of the end of academic year 2023-24, NCI has some 6,255 students in full and part-time undergraduate and postgraduate programmes including doctoral degrees, with over 2,665 registered in computing degrees. In 2016, NCI became the first institution outside of the Institute of Technology sector to offer higher education apprenticeships. It will participate in this project via The Cloud Competency Centre (CCC), which is committed to bridging high-performance computing, distributed ledger technologies, data analytics, and parallel processing with ongoing business and economic developments to produce quality research outputs and collaborations with academic institutions, funding agencies, and companies.
