TUS Student Handbook 2023/24

The station has also been involved in a number of
outreach programmes with the wider community
that have seen the station open up its airwaves to
people with disabilities, secondary school students,
disadvantaged youth, Mincéirí, migrants and
asylum seekers. The station has also developed
Eramsus+ projects such as SNAP (Sexuality
Intimacy Art Podcast) and offers various QQI
courses, including, but not limited to, Media
Expression, Communications, and Media Literacy.
Throughout the year the station also runs live
gigs, events, and Outside Broadcasts from
different locations. The stations live events from
the Record Room have become popular nights
for those with more alternative music taste.
The station gives students a wide range of media
production opportunities and experience. But you
don’t have to study media to join – ANY student on
ANY course can become a radio station volunteer and
broadcaster. If you don’t want to speak on air, there
are plenty of jobs for researchers and technicians.
Past volunteers of the station are now working with
the BBC, RTÉ (radio and television), local commercial
stations such as Spin SW, Limerick Live95, and Clare
and Tipp FM to name but a few. There is Wired 99.9FM
alumni working in media outlets across the globe.
