- Youth and education
The College community promotes excellence in teaching, learning and research at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. It seeks to foster the intellectual, spiritual, personal and professional development of students within a supportive and challenging environment that guarantees the intellectual freedom of staff and students. As a college with a Catholic christian ethos, Mary Immaculate actively promotes a supportive learning environment and cultural tolerance.
Mary Immaculate College offers undergraduate and post-graduate programmes in a range of subjects. It also supports the very diverse research activities of its staff and PhD students. In addition, the college seeks, through active engagement with other bodies and individuals, to contribute to the quality of life and economic development of its immediate community, local institutions and international partners.
Mary Immaculate College would be able to bring its own experience of working internationally to the group. It could host national meetings and provide online and recorded media resources for the network.
It is a key strand of the college's strategic plan to enhance and expand its international collaboration, on both educational and cultural levels. ALF offers the potential of new and exciting partnerships which will be mutually beneficial for all participants. It would also be valuable to Mary Immaculate to participate in the national network, so broadening its engagement with a variety of organisations with converging interests.
