The site has been mooted for use as student accommodation and to expand the university's footprint in recent years.

THE GOVERNMENT HAS approved the purchase of 20 acres at the former Waterford Crystal site for South East Technological University

The rest of the site will remain in the ownership of local builders Noel Frisby Construction, who bought the site in 2013. “This is a major moment in the development of SETU. The purchase of the site will allow SETU expand and grow, and crucially embed in the city of Waterford,” Harris said. “Our work to realise a University-Enterprise Quarter on the Waterford Crystal site will begin now in earnest and we look forward to developing this vision with all of our stakeholders and regional partners.
