The scholarships were presented to students specialising in construction management, quantity surveying, engineering, and architecture. JT Magen aims to support the next generation of construction talent and bolster career opportunities for students in the Munster region by fostering industry connections and hands-on experience through the scholarship programme. Each recipient demonstrated a strong commitment to the construction industry, making them ideal candidates to represent Ireland’s future in the global construction landscape.
“We are proud to contribute to the education of such outstanding students at SETU, as their skills and enthusiasm reflect the quality of talent that will drive the construction industry forward,” said Pete Moran, spokesperson for JT Magen. “Our company was founded by an Irishman, and giving back to the community is close to our hearts. We look forward to continuing this programme, not only to support these students but to inspire future generations as well.”
As a leading construction firm with roots in Ireland and a presence in key markets across the U.S., JT Magen recognises the importance of industry-academic partnerships. By expanding its support for SETU students, JT Magen hopes to bridge educational and practical experience, preparing graduates to excel in both the Irish and international construction markets.
