Irish institutions are eyeing further opportunities for transnational education following a slew of successful projects overseas, delegates at a major international education conference have heard.

“TNE is very much of interest, so looking at opportunities offshore is very much part of the agenda here,” Orla Feely, president of University College Dublin (UCD) told The PIE Live Ireland last week.

UCD currently has three joint colleges in China, which Feely said had been “incredibly successful”, with the institution pleased with the relationships it has made in the area, as well as the quality of the education on offer.

Programs at these colleges are delivered through some regionally based faculty, while others fly out from Ireland to teach in China, she explained.
