St Patrick's College, Dublin

St Patrick's College was a third level institution, located in Drumcondra, Dublin, Ireland. The college was in existence since 1875 and has a Roman Catholic ethos. It was the largest primary teacher training college in Ireland with 2,000 students. The college offered a number of undergraduate courses, primarily in primary education and arts, and postgraduate courses, primarily in education and languages. As of 30 September 2016, the college, along with Mater Dei Institute of Education, All Hallows College and Church of Ireland College of Education, was incorporated into Dublin City University, with the three institutions forming DCU's fifth faculty, 'The DCU Institute of Education'. All humanities-based courses were then absorbed by the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences.
