Research

The Moore Institute was conceived as a place where individual researchers in the several disciplines in the Arts, Humanities and Social Studies domains would have a tranquil place where they might think, research and write without interruption, and with meeting spaces where they might engage in intellectual exchange with their fellow researchers. The Institute was also envisaged as the normal work place and the normal place of intellectual encounter for all early stage researchers in these same disciplines at NUI Galway and for all researchers in these domains from other universities who might choose, or be chosen, to spend time at the Institute. The seminar rooms and the display area of the Institute were designed to further facilitate critical thinking and creative encounters and also to enable cultural interaction between the research community based at the Moore and the larger society of the University and of the city of Galway and its hinterland.
