About Maynooth University
Basic information and contact details for Maynooth University
The National University of Ireland, Maynooth has its origins in the Royal College of St Patrick, which was founded in 1795 to educate priests.
However, the institution was only formally established as an autonomous university in 1997, as a result of the Universities Act, making it both one of Ireland’s oldest and youngest higher education institutions. In 1896, NUI Maynooth became a Pontifical University before becoming a Recognised College of the National University of Ireland in 1910.
Commonly known as Maynooth University, the institution’s main base is divided into a North Campus and a South Campus. The two are separated by a main road.
The South Campus is also known as the “old” campus, and is home to Maynooth’s more historic buildings, including the chapel, the National Science Museum, and Maynooth Castle. The North - or “new” – Campus was developed in the 20th century and houses the sports centre, student residences, the students’ union building, and a number of academic buildings.
Maynooth University also has a small campus located in Kilkenny, which was set up in 1997 and is based at St. Kieran's College. The university is divided into three faculties: Science and Engineering; Arts, Celtic Studies and Philosophy; Social Sciences.
Alumni of NUI Maynooth include the playwright and author Brian Friel, broadcaster Craig Doyle, Nobel laureate John Hume, former Irish minister for social and family affairs Mary Hanafin, and 1996 Eurovision Song Contest winner Eimear Quinn.
The university has the highest proportion of mature students (16 per cent) and access students (22 per cent) of any university in Ireland.
