The Department of Computer Science at Maynooth University was founded in 1987 and is located in the Eolas Building, a €20M state-of-the-art ICT hub, which opened in 2015. Our laboratories and equipment provide excellent facilities for practical work and all our courses include a mix of lectures and lab work.
Acquire hands-on programming skills and advanced problem solving techniques in our dedicated computer science building (Eolas).
Spending time working in industry as part of your degree enhances your employment opportunities once you graduate. We endeavour to provide a supportive and enjoyable atmosphere for learning through our Computer Science Support Centre, extensive assistance during practical work and we are always available outside of lectures to help our students.
