Welcome to the CIT Societies website. Education means more than just academic learning, it’s about interacting and socialising with other students, which in turn relieves the pressures of being buried beneath a pile of economics, chemistry or mechanics books. Some of the greatest memories students have of their time in College are of their involvement in Societies and attending Societies events.


The diversity of CIT Societies means practically every taste is catered for. College is a time of learning so you shouldn’t confine yourself to activities you already know. Broaden your horizons by joining a Society that the Institute has to offer. CIT Societies range from large course related Societies like Business Studies and Accounting, which are run primarily for students within a particular course and provide a great chance to get to know your class on a social level, to College wide Societies like Film, Music and Yoga.


During the academic year 2008/2009, we had 42 Societies in operation in CIT and this area will grow further this academic year. The activities carried out by the Societies can range from the organisation of paintballing, to table-quizzes, workshops, showing films, trips to various parts of Ireland, Go-Karting or even the very popular 'faculty balls'.
