School of Nursing & Midwifery, NUI Galway

This School has always been at the forefront of nursing and midwifery education in Ireland. Established in 1993, it was the first Irish university to introduce the pre-registration diploma programme for nursing students. Since then the number of staff and range of programmes have developed and flourished. There are now twenty eight academic staff, six administrative staff and approximately 570 students. The School is located in Áras Moyola, a new purpose-built building with state-of-the-art lecture theatres, laboratory facilities and learning equipment.
