Description
The Martin Ryan Institute was one of the most significant examples of university philanthropy in Ireland, following a significant donation by the late Dr Tony Ryan, founder of Guinness Peat Aviation and Ryanair, in the name of his father, Martin Ryan.
Dr Tony Ryan was a commercially astute business leader as well as a visionary philanthropist, and the Ryan Institute for Environmental, Energy and Marine Research (formerly the Martin Ryan Building) could not have been established without his farsightedness in supporting marine research. The Martin Ryan Marine Science Institute was completed on the University Campus in 1992, with support from the University Foundation and the EC STRIDE operational programme in Ireland.
The Ryan Institute is a powerhouse for the inter-disciplinary research and innovation that is necessary to address the many sustainable development challenges facing society today, from national to global scales. The Ryan Institute is a cross-cutting Research Institute of the University of Galway with research groups drawn from all Colleges across the University of Galway, with internationally-renowned expertise spanning science, engineering, socio-economics and health.
The Ryan Institute is the University of Galway's multi-disciplinary research institute for advancing sustainability and innovation impacts across its four thematic research areas, namely Marine & Coastal; Energy & Climate Change; Agriculture & BioEconomy; and Environment & Health. The Ryan Institute is a cross-cutting Research Institute of the University of Galway comprised of 12 Research Centres/Clusters spanning the above thematic research areas. At present, the Ryan Institute is University of Galway's largest research institute comprised of 89 Research Groups and 12 Research Centres/Clusters that are responsible for over 500 funded research projects.
