Conference Location

Maynooth University, Co.Kildare

Join us in picturesque Maynooth located 25 kilometers outside Dublin, Ireland. The University traces its origins to the foundation of the Royal College of St. Patrick in 1795, drawing inspiration from a heritage that includes over 200 years of education and scholarship. Today, Maynooth University has grown to a university of over 15,000 students from more than 100 countries. It is a place of lively contrasts–a modern institution, dynamic, rapidly-growing, research-led and engaged, yet grounded in historic academic strengths and scholarly traditions. 

All plenary and parallel sessions will be hosted in the University’s Technology Science and Innovation (TSI) Building on the North Campus. The conference dinner will be held in Pugin Hall, South Campus.
