Fire Safety Engineering (Online)

As a Donegal person, attending Letterkenny Institute of Technology was an obvious choice and one which I will never forget or regret. Initially, I studied Construction Studies and after graduating with a Diploma in Construction Fire Technology in 2001, it was an easy decision for me to continue my education, by obtaining the “add on” honours degree in Fire Safety Engineering. This level 8 qualification allowed me to qualify for local authority Engineering grade positions and in 2004 I was appointed as an Assistant Fire Officer with Donegal County Council. In 2015 I went back to LYIT as a part time student and have just completed a MSc (by research) in Fire Safety Engineering. This has enhanced further my career prospects. After 15 years as a Senior Fire Officer with Donegal Fire Service, I can say that LYIT are the leading light in this country with respect to academia in Fire Safety Engineering. By improving the level of industry expertise in Fire Safety Engineering, LYIT have played a massive role in improving the general level of fire safety in society. For this they must be commended. Choose Fire Safety Engineering in LYIT and you won’t be disappointed.

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
