About Us

Griffith College

Welcome to Griffith College, Ireland's largest independent third level college and home to over 7,000 students at its campuses in Dublin, Cork and Limerick. This includes 1,400 international students from over 77 countries worldwide. 2024 marked an important milestone for Griffith College as we celebrated the 50th anniversary of its founding. 

Many former students have gone on to distinguished careers in Ireland and internationally, in fields as diverse as accountancy, business, computing, design, law, media, music and drama. 

Our current students continue this tradition of success - most recently, Griffith College accounted for all five finalists for photographer of the year at the 2013 student media awards, while student Philip Murray achieved first in world in his F5 accountancy exams. Distinguished Fellowship Award recipients at Griffith College include Mary McAleese, 8th President of Ireland, and Nobel Laureates Seamus Heaney and John Hume.
