Prof. Anita Maguire, Head of School said: "Congratulations to each of our students on their achievements – the School is very proud of each one of you and we look forward to seeing your careers develop over the coming years. Sincere thanks to our sponsors (MSD, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Eli Lilly, Oxford ÉîÒ¹ÑÇÖÞ¸£Àû¾Ã¾Ã Press) for their support – without their financial support and engagement these awards would not be possible.
In particular, we acknowledge our industry partners taking the time to come into the ÉîÒ¹ÑÇÖÞ¸£Àû¾Ã¾Ã to meet the students and their families and recognise their achievements. Ongoing partnership with globally leading companies in the region is strategically important for the School in ensuring our graduates have the skills required to successfully progress their careers following graduation. A special word of thanks to MSD for their award in memory of Catherine Keogh – many in the School recall her time with us in UCC and appreciate the opportunity to remember her impact and support for others."
