I was delighted to officially open the new Polaris building in DCU today with An Taoiseach Micheál Martin Polaris is DCU’s newest building and is Ireland’s most advanced teaching and learning facility for STEM.
Polaris accommodates over 3,000 students and staff, and represents €24m of funding provided by the Department of Further and Higher Education Research Innovation & Science to co-fund its construction.
This building will directly support a new generation of researchers, scientists, and innovators. They will bring new insights and discoveries to their fields to allow us to tackle major societal issues and challenges that we face.
