Mary Immaculate College is a university-level College of Education and the Liberal Arts, academically linked with the University of Limerick.  The College has a diverse and growing student population of almost 3500, enrolled in undergraduate programmes for B.Ed. and BA degrees, and in a range of postgraduate programmes at Diploma, MA and Ph.D level. 

The College is situated in the southern suburbs of Limerick City and is within ten minute’s walking distance of the city centre, the main rail and bus terminus and a few miles from Shannon International airport.  The city has a thriving cultural scene and is famous for its sporting tradition both in rugby and Gaelic games.

The campus has undergone much change over the past few years with the recent construction of two new buildings - a state-of-the-art multi-purpose sports complex named Tailteann which was voted Leisure Building of the Year 2008 by the RIAI and more recently Teamhair / TARA which consists of large lecture theatres, computer and teaching laboratories and a 500-seat theatre.

The College has an active and inclusive Students’ Union and has a range of clubs and societies including an equestrian society, a drama society and a radio society with its own radio station – Wired FM!  Both on-campus and off-campus residential accommodation are available.
