The shortlist has just been announced for the National Procurement Awards and NITL is delighted that Kevin O’Donoghue has been shortlisted in the “Academic and Research Excellence” category. Kevin recently completed NITL’s full-time M.Sc. in Supply Chain Management.



This award is open to all undergraduate or postgraduate students who have completed a Level 8 qualification in the area of Procurement within the past 3 years. It recognises students for outstanding research and accomplishments as documented in their theses and dissertations. Kevin’s submission was based on the research that he undertook for his dissertation entitled “Components of Excellence in Supply Chain Learning: The learning supply chain with respect to Irish supply chain management education programmes”. The work was supervised by Edward Sweeney.

NITL wishes Kevin well when the winners are announced at the awards ceremony in the Burlington Hotel on Thursday, November 17th, hosted by Richard Curran presenter of RTÉ’s Dragons Den and Deputy Editor of the Sunday Business Post.For further information about the awards visit:
