Celebrating Achievement: TU Dublin Honours the Graduation of 5,300 Students Over 22 Ceremonies

Published: 4 Nov, 2024

Congratulations to the newest graduates of TU Dublin! Over 5,300 students were celebrated in a series of 22 ceremonies held on the university's Tallaght Campus, marking a significant achievement for both graduates and their families. This year's conferring ceremonies have not only been a testament to the hard work and perseverance of each student but also a tribute to the support systems—families, friends, and mentors—who have stood by them through their academic journeys.

Speaking about this year's graduates, Interim President of TU Dublin Professor John Doran said. "

As you step into the next chapter of your life, I encourage you to carry with you the values of inclusion and respect that have been central to your experience at TU Dublin. No matter which career path you pursue, you have the power to make a positive impact.

In a world increasingly divided by inequality, climate challenges, and threats to peace, your generation holds a unique responsibility. You are stepping into leadership at a time when the need for compassion, empathy, and fairness is greater than ever. The challenges we face are complex, from the widening gap between the rich and the poor to ongoing conflicts that endanger human rights and security. But with those challenges come opportunities —opportunities to advocate for social justice, human dignity, and lasting peace."
