A total of 2,000 additional ICT graduates-level professionals will be provided in the coming year through the education system and the employment permits system, as part of a series of reforms aimed at making Ireland the internet capital of Europe. The reforms are being driven by the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, Richard Bruton TD, and the Minister for Education and Skills, Ruairí Quinn TD.


The changes are part of Action Plan for Jobs 2013, and have an ultimate aim of providing Ireland with the highest proportion of ICT graduates as a share of third level graduates by 2018. The Ministers made the announcements this week at a leading Irish ICT company, Version 1. Based in Dublin, it employs over 350 people and has hired several people in senior technology positions through the employment permits system in recent years. This has allowed the company to win new business and ultimately create new jobs.

Dublin Business School offers the following ICT courses;

• Master of Science (MSc) Computing and Information Systems
• Master of Science (MSc) Marketing with Digital Media
• MBA in Cloud Computing
• MBA in Information Systems
