Prof David FitzPatrick will take up a role with the University of Nottingham in the coming months
TU Dublin president Prof David Fitzpatrick is to become provost and chief executive of the University of Nottingham Malaysia from June 1st.
The announcement comes after a prolonged period of financial turbulence at TU Dublin, which was formed through a merger of the Dublin Institute of Technology colleges at the start of 2019. Prof FitzPatrick, who was previously a senior staff member at UCD, became president at that time. TU Dublin has more than 20,000 students at five campuses around Dublin.
There had, however, been a significant drop in student numbers and though the precise number reported shifted in the months that followed, the uncertainty generated additional concern inside the university and at the HEA regarding governance structures and procedures. Dr Wall added: “There is a requirement for strategic, adaptive and timely responses to these matters, which are of serious concern to me.”
