The most direct option is Eireagle, which will cost €25, and the cheapest option would be to take the Dublin Coach which leaves from the airport once per hour and goes to the Red Cow, where you will change to the M7 Express Service which will go to Limerick. The cost of this will be €15 if you book online, or €20 to get a ticket at the bus. You can ask at the airport for the ‘Dublin Coach’ or the ‘Green Bus’ and you should be able to find it. There are other options such as J.J Kavanagh & Sons, but these tend to be more expensive. A taxi for this journey could cost anywhere from €250 to €300. Dublin airport is also the headquarters of Ryanair and Aer Lingus, which means affordable flights to destinations in Europe and around the world. Ryanair makes it especially easy to reach most places in Europe for a weekend getaway at an affordable cost. From Shannon Airport, you can get the Bus Eireann Bus 343 from the airport to the city. A taxi for this route would cost approximately €45. Shannon Airport is the nearest airport to Cook at just 20-30 minutes away. The airport handles over 1.7 million passengers per year and flies to a vast number of global destinations. You can also rent cars at either Shannon or Dublin airports if you prefer to drive yourself. WHERE IS THE COOK MEDICAL OFFICE?

In today’s environment of mobile, financial and human capital, the focus of economic competition is increasingly on city regions. This trend is particularly significant for an open economy such as Ireland which is competing in a global market for investment and talent. In 2014 Limerick City Council and Limerick County Council amalgamated into one body - Limerick City & County Council. As outlined in the Limerick 2030 Vision: An Economic and Spatial Plan for Limerick report, the objective of this merger was to extend the city boundary to include urbanised parts of the county and was seen as a ‘once in a generation opportunity’ to drive new levels of employment and economic growth. In May 2017 Limerick City & County Council (LC&CC) appointed EY-DKM Economic Advisory Services (formerly DKM Economic Consultants) with MCJ Lemagnen Associates Ltd. (MCJ Lemagnen) to undertake an Economic Profile report of Limerick city (including suburbs as defined by the CSO) and county.

    2015 2016 ANNUAL REPORT www.mic.ul.ie fl MIC ANNUAL REPORT 15-16 PAGE 2 Professor Peadar Cremin President of Mary Immaculate College 1999 - 2011 In 1999 Professor Cremin was appointed as the first lay President of the College in 101 years. Over the term of his presidency, the College community expanded dramatically with, by the time of his retirement in 2011, over 3,000 students enrolled on 30 different academic programmes at under - graduate, postgraduate and doctoral levels. Professor Cremin contributed hugely to the development of the College, including the growth in student numbers, the introduction of new academic programmes and the physical transformation of the campus. He oversaw the completion of a major capital investment programme to a total of €40 million, resulting in the provision of class-leading facilities that include Tailteann, our award winning multi-purpose sports complex, and TARA – a teaching and recreational building. Professor Cremin was also the driving force behind the establishment of Limerick's premier theatre venue, the very successful 510-seat Lime Tree Theatre. Throughout his long and exceptional career in Mary Immaculate College, Peadar-as he was always known - made an indelible mark in three respects particularly. He was a natural leader, as likely in company to make the first foray into tale or rhyme as he was, amongst colleagues, to set an ambitious vision and marshall all and sundry towards its realisation. Secondly, with remarkable tenacity, and in the face of towering odds, he succeeded in orchestrating the physical transformation of the campus by wrestling funds from an economy entering free-fall in mid-2008.
