Limerick Institute of Technology - Definition and Overview

Limerick Institute of Technology (LIT) is an institution of higher education at Moylish Park, Caherdavin, in Limerick City, Ireland and offers courses at certificate, diploma and degree level in business, engineering and science as well as other academic disciplines. It also offers courses in modern apprenticeships and adult education. Art and design courses are offered at another campus in Clare St. near the city centre – the Limerick School of Art and Design.

A Regional Technical College was planned for Limerick along with the other colleges in the 1960s however when NIHE, Limerick was announced the plans were dropped and instead Limerick College of Art, Commerce and Technology (Limerick CoACT) developed in an ad-hoc manner eventually developing into Regional Technical College, Limerick in 1993.
