The event featured presentations on all CAO courses, along with opportunities to meet lecturers and current students to gain insights into course content, career options, and campus life. Dr Derek O’Byrne, Vice President for Academic Affairs, Teaching & Learning at SETU, said the event was about helping students make informed, confident decisions about their future. “Our goal is to help students discover the path that suits their interests and strengths. Open days like this are valuable both in terms of the information students gain and the connections they create,” Dr O’Byrne said. “We want students to picture themselves in an environment where they could thrive academically, socially, and personally over the next four years. When students find the right environment and the right programme, everything else falls into place.” BELOW: Third-year general nursing students Alanuela Aybonaubare, Waterford and Keith Kelly, Wexford assisting lecturer Heather Jennings and Deirdre Chapman, Allocation Officer at South East Technological University’s Open Day at the Cork Road Campus.

Jess Lawton, Deputy Manager in School, CAO and Career Guidance Engagement at SETU, said the event provided an opportunity for students to explore their options. “We know that choosing the right course can feel overwhelming, but we’re here to make that journey easier. The Autumn Schools Open Day gave students a chance to ask questions, meet lecturers and current students, and explore every possibility open to them,” she said. “We want students to feel excited about their next steps, and SETU can help them on their educational journey.” SETU will be hosting a parents online information evening on Tuesday, 25 November from 6.30pm to 7.30pm.
