Welcome to the Engagement Office

The Engagement Office is a dedicated team serving as a gateway for external partners to engage with University of Galway, while also helping colleagues across the university identify, build, and develop relationships with organisations beyond our walls. We work with external organisations to understand the full scope of their needs, which often span multiple parts of the university, and then coordinating across departments to build partnerships that grow and deepen over time.

Corporate Engagement

We help businesses navigate the university and find the right people and expertise, while supporting our academic and professional colleagues in developing relationships with industry — from collaborative research to talent pipelines and knowledge exchange. Learn more or contact us at  engagement@universityofgalway.ie.

Community Engagement

We act as a bridge between the university and the communities we serve, connecting external community groups with relevant university resources and helping our staff and students get involved in volunteering, engaged research in the community and other initiatives that create shared value. Learn more or contact us at community@universityofgalway.ie.

Whether you're an external organisation looking to connect with the university — across one area or several — or a colleague looking to build links beyond it, the Engagement Office is your starting point. We don't just make introductions; we work to understand the bigger picture and help relationships grow into long-term, mutually beneficial partnerships.
