What's so good about being an ISE Residency Partner?

The University of Limerick has designed a new way to learn software engineering. Immersive Software Engineering is unique. 

Our students learn from experts in industry from the very beginning. ISE students go on 5 paid residencies over their four years with ISE. Our students interact with world class researchers from day 1. They learn in a bespoke educational environment with the best resources. Our expectations for them are high. 

We know companies need the skills ISE students bring in problem solving, creative thinking, coding and design. We know our students will help companies grow faster and do new things. Our partner companies help our students grow. 

Our partner companies help educate ISE students through our residency programme throughout the four years of ISE, exactly as hospitals help train medical doctors in different specialities. Working with so many top companies around the globe allows us to expose our students to real-world companies problems, teach them how to work in teams, and give them hands-on experience. Students can work in up to five different companies, emerging from the process more formed as software professionals.  

Immersive Software Engineering will produce a new industry ready generation of engineers who understand research, who understand the world of work, and who can be ready for the changes we know are coming. 

Testimomnials

Software engineering is a wonderful career. Immersive Software Engineering gets students writing code in the real world as quickly as possible, so they’re ready to join today’s leading companies or start Ireland’s next breakout startup.”

John Collison
Entrepreneur, co-founder of Stripe
 

“We gave them something that we thought would take them three months and they finished in three weeks. That was the incredible nature of what they were able to achieve because of the talent, because of the training they got and because of the immersement in industry”

Mike Morrissey

“Our ISE student was operating at level that we would expect to see from a graduate, and he had only completed his first year.”

Director of the Irish Centre Maternal & Child Health
Research, University College Cork

“The whole set-up has been second to none. The programme team communication was fantastic and the students organisation and ability to deliver is actually far superior to where they should be right now.”
