Transitions Co-Ordinator

The Transitions Coordinator plays a key role in helping students from diverse backgrounds—whether from secondary school, further education, or the workplace—successfully adapt to higher education. Their focus is on ensuring students are prepared both academically and socially. Academic readiness means empowering students to become independent learners, while social readiness helps them feel connected to their classmates, campus, and the wider TU Dublin community.

Working alongside the Academic Lead of the Computing Learning Centre, the Transitions Coordinator supports new students in the Faculty of Computing, Digital and Data. They actively promote the Centre and organize initiatives that boost student engagement and success.

I am incredibly grateful for the support I received from you! During a challenging time, you were always there to listen and provide guidance. Your encouragement helped me navigate my difficulties with confidence and clarity. You went above and beyond, offering not just practical advice, but also emotional support that made a significant difference in my life. I truly couldn’t have come through that period without your wisdom and insight.
