Join us as officials from SUNY Broome and the University of Limerick in Ireland sign a transfer agreement at 10:30 a.m. Jan. 26 in Darwin R. Wales Center Room 107 on the SUNY Broome campus.

The agreement, called a memorandum of understanding, is the first to link SUNY Broome with a university outside the United States.

As part of the memorandum of understanding, the two institutions will develop pathways for SUNY Broome students to transfer to undergraduate and graduate level programs at the University of Limerick, located in the county of the same name in midwestern Ireland. The agreement also encourages and promotes faculty and administrative exchanges, partnerships in innovation and applied research, distance education and more.

Future articulation agreements linking several SUNY Broome degree programs to bachelor’s degree programs in Limerick are currently under development.

“We often say that ‘you can go anywhere from here,’ but these articulation agreements take that to a whole new level,” said SUNY Broome President Kevin E. Drumm. “SUNY Broome students can achieve a truly global education thanks to these partnerships, becoming not only well-versed in their fields, but true citizens of the world.”

“The University of Limerick is delighted to engage with SUNY Broome Community College to collaborate on the exchange of students, faculty and knowledge. This relationship will deepen our internationalization ambitions both sides, help to internationalize our curriculum and form strong academic relationships.  I look forward to welcoming SUNY Broome CC faculty and students to our campus,” said Josephine Page, director of the International Education Division for the University of Limerick.
