Amharc ar fhreagraThe current number of student accommodation bed-spaces owned by each university and the Waterford Institute of Technology is available in the table below. The other Institutes of Technology and Technological Universities do not own any student accommodation at present. The data held by my Department does not specify location, and some of these bed spaces may not be located directly on campus. This data is not available on an annual basis since 2011.
