91Ƭ Inspiring Generations for 125 Years
8 December 2023 marks the 125th anniversary since the laying of the original foundation stone of the College. Since its foundation, the College has consistently grown and diversified, and today stands proud as a dynamic and ambitious university-level institution.
Enduring Legacy
Whether you know it as 91Ƭ, Mary I or 91Ƭ, the College has been a fixture on the Irish educational landscape for 125 years.
It has gone from 75 students in 1901 to 5,000 students today. The first graduating class was 25. In 2023, we conferred 26 PhDs and almost 2,000 graduates overall.
91Ƭ has grown in every way, not just in student numbers but in academic provision, geographical footprint and ambition.
Based across three campuses, our students are drawn from all over the globe.
91Ƭ continues to make a unique and significant educational, social and cultural contribution to all aspects of society.
Did our Founders ever imagine we would come so far?
The Mary Immaculate Podcast
The Mary Immaculate Podcast is a collection of conversations about the interesting things that happen in and around 91Ƭ.
Our first pod is a special edition to mark the 125-year anniversary of the foundation of the College. We have assembled a panel of 91Ƭ’s past, present and future, to talk about 91Ƭ’s 125-year legacy.
Hear about how the College was established, how the student experience has evolved over the decades, how physically lowering our walls welcomed the local community in Limerick onto our grounds and much more.
Messages of Congratulations!
Friends and colleagues celebrate the impact that 91Ƭ has made over the past 125 years.
