Cork Institute of Technology (CIT), formerly Regional Technical College, Cork, is a college located in Cork, Ireland opened in 1973. The institute has 17,000 students (both part-time and full-time) in art, business, engineering, music and science disciplines. The main campus is at Bishopstown, Cork.
A friendly rivalry exists between the institute and the nearby University College, Cork.
The Institutes of Technology Act 2006 designates three schools as part of the institute;
In addition to these three schools there are three additional schools (i.e. commensurate to the faculties of a university) which form part of the institute;
- Business & Humanities
- Engineering
- Science
The institute has been named as Institute of Technology of the Year in The Sunday Times University Guide for Ireland[1]. This is one of the largest and most respected such guides in the world with 1.4 million copies printed in different editions, and it is aimed particularly at those going to college or university in 2007.
