The campaign aims to raise the profile of the University six years after it was founded through a merger of Dublin Institute of Technology, Institute of Technology Tallaght, and Institute of Technology Blanchardstown. 

Running throughout the academic year, the "Go Beyond Learning" campaign is timed to encourage consideration of TU Dublin for future study, particularly amongst Leaving Certificate students.

"To launch the campaign, we are bringing TU Dublin to Dublin City through an eye-catching wrap of a Green Line Luas tram. The tram passes close by three of our campuses, highlighting how easily accessible it is to study at TU Dublin. Additional advertising at bus shelters and inside Luas trams, Dublin Buses, and DART carriages will ensure strong visibility across all major public transport modes, connecting with prospective students throughout Dublin."
