Among this year’s final year students putting their work on display was Róisín Mitchell, originally from Laois and now living in Limerick city, who is studying a Bachelor of Science in Computer Systems.

For her final year project, Róisín created an AI system for safe addiction recovery support. Her project looks at how AI can offer supportive, recovery-focused responses while using strong safeguards to stop unsafe or inappropriate advice from reaching vulnerable users.

Annika Jungfleisch, from Bremen in Germany and also based in Limerick city, is a student on the Bachelor of Science in Interaction Design who also had her FYP on display. For her final year project, Annika created a 3-D printed smart replica of an ancient Greek statue, transforming ancient artefacts from silent objects into interactive storytellers to enhance visitor engagement and learning in museums.
