The internationalization of Irish higher education is a key element in the delivery of a quality teaching, learning and research experience for students and staff and for building international engagement for the sector. The Government of Ireland - International Education Scholarship (GOI-IES) scheme was set up under the provisions of the Government’s International Education Strategy, 2010–2015 and expanded under the successor strategy “Irish Educated, Globally Connected (2016- 2020)”.

Government of Ireland International Scholarships are awarded to highly talented students from non-EEA countries to study in Ireland for a period of one year. The requisites and conditions are mentioned below:
