Subject Talks
On Tuesday, 12th and Wednesday, 13th of September we will be hosting a series of Subject Information Talks on campus to help students with their subject choices in advance of registration. Join us (check the schedule) and ask our staff anything that’s on your mind about our Arts or Science degrees or any of our courses. We are here to help!
Consent Training
MU is committed to the development of an institutional campus culture which is safe, respectful and supportive. Prior to in-person registration at Maynooth, all incoming students are required to complete a mandatory workshop on consent. This training will provide you with knowledge and skills that will help you to keep yourself safe and enjoy your college experience. The workshop can be found on Moodle, Maynooth Virtual Learning Environment. It is available 24/7 once you have received your Maynooth login details.
