The University Education Model Collection 2024: “A University Way of Being”

The University Education Model (UEM) revolutionises our approach to education; this approach is grounded in transformative learning opportunities and experiences for all. The UEM is central to the TU Dublin Strategic Intent, which itself is informed by the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and in the case of the UEM, SDG 4 Quality Education. Embedding the UEM into our practice, processes and culture will empower TU Dublin to cater for the largest number of diverse learners, producing the most sought after, digitally literate, graduates.

The central focus of UEM are our learners, grounded in the three components that comprise the University Education Model: Learner Support, Learner Choice, and Learner Experience. By combining these three components it encourages our learners to embrace opportunities for growth, as well as personal and societal development, over their learning journey at TU Dublin. The UEM supports learners to realise their unique potential as individuals and in relationships with others, thereby contributing positively to the well-being and productivity of society, the planet, and its inhabitants. This creates a sustainable, yet progressive, TU Dublin where we all belong, and the experience of all learners, including staff, is meaningful, enriching, and life-enhancing.
