World-class research based on a distinctive, interdisciplinary approach to the natural sciences, social sciences, engineering and technology, and the arts and humanities.
The MU International Office is the first point of contact for international students applying for full-degree, Erasmus, Study Abroad, and Summer School programmes, and supports MU students who wish to study abroad.
Prof. Kevin Kavanagh graduated with a BSc (Joint Honours) degree in Biology and Chemistry and undertook a PhD in Microbiology. He undertook postdoctoral research in projects in Maynooth and University of Kuwait, and the National Cell and Tissue Culture Centre in Dublin City University. He was appointed as a Lecturer in 1995 and promoted to Senior Lecturer in 2002 and to Professor in 2016. He was appointed as a visiting Lecturer in Medical Mycology at Queen's University Belfast in 2009.
