Amharc ar fhreagraAs part of the Team Ireland Trade Mission to South Korea, I led the Tertiary Education, Research, Innovation and Science mission. I visited Seoul National University on Friday 3 November along with a delegation of academics from a number of Irish higher education institutions including UCD, TCD, Maynooth University and TU Dublin. I toured the campus and met with an Irish student undertaking her studies in Korea. I facilitated discussions between Irish university representatives and their Korean counterparts, exploring opportunities for further cooperation on tertiary education, research and innovation.
