Mar 27: Technological University of the Shannon (TUS) has appointed The Reppro as its communications partner in India. Under the mandate, The Reppro will lead media relations and support TUS’s institutional visibility and thought leadership across education, business, and technology media.
The appointment comes as Indian students show growing interest in international programmes that combine academic study with industry-linked training, particularly in Engineering and Information Technology. Ireland has strengthened its position as a European technology hub in recent years, hosting the European headquarters of several global technology companies and attracting students seeking proximity to these innovation ecosystems.
Engineering and IT education today has to stay closely connected to industry”, said Dr. Niall Colgan, Head of Department of Computer and Software Engineering at Technological University of the Shannon. “Our programmes are built with industry partners so that students develop applied skills relevant to global technology environments. India has become an important market for internationally mobile and AI technology talent, and clear communication about our academic model and career outcomes is essential as engagement with Indian students expands.”
Through its seven campuses, with primary campuses located in Athlone and Limerick, Technological University of the Shannon offers undergraduate and postgraduate programmes developed in close collaboration with industry partners. TUS Athlone campus in the heart of Ireland, works with companies such as Ericsson, Valeo, Cisco etc., to embed applied learning and industry engagement into its curriculum. Its IT portfolio includes specialised MSc programmes in Artificial Intelligence, Cloud Native Computing, Cybersecurity, and Software Engineering.
Amit Gupta, Founder, The Reppro, said, “India has become one of the most closely watched markets for international technology education. As students look more carefully at career outcomes and industry exposure, universities need to communicate clearly about how their programmes connect with real technology ecosystems. Our role will be to build sustained visibility for TUS and bring greater clarity to the conversation around Engineering and IT pathways linked to Ireland’s innovation economy.”
The mandate adds to The Reppro’s growing portfolio of education and technology clients, reflecting increased demand for communications support as global universities expand engagement with markets such as India.
