Fire Safety Engineering

With an interest in science and construction and the knowledge that there was a shortage of qualified fire engineers in Ireland and abroad, I enrolled in the course as a mature student. Lectures from some of the most respected people in the field, coupled with experiments in LYIT’s Fire Laboratory and a summer placement, provided me with not only the theoretical but the practical skills required to succeed in the industry. Upon graduating with a First Class Honours Degree I took up a position of Fire Safety Engineer & Access Consultant with Maurice Johnston & Partners in our Letterkenny office based in the CoLab at LYIT. In addition to working for MJP I am currently completing a part-time Masters in Fire Safety Engineering at University of Ulster. All of which will contribute to fulfilling my goal of becoming a Chartered Engineer.

As an internationally renowned fire safety engineering consultancy, Trenton Fire have recruited a number of members of staff that are graduates of the Fire Safety Engineering course at Letterkenny Institute of Technology. These members of staff have been an important and valued factor in the progression and success of Trenton Fire. We have recently worked closely with LYIT to establish a mutually beneficial relationship to provide opportunities for graduates of this respected course.

As we continue to grow as a company, we look forward to maintaining our relationship with the faculty and students of the fire safety engineering course and will inevitably be welcoming graduates into our company again in future
