Verified on the official TU Dublin project page. The source states a 1 September 2026 application deadline but no exact closing time, so the structured datetime field is intentionally left null.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
