Description and functions
The HEA was established under the Higher Education Authority Act 1971. Its official Irish language name is An tÚdarás um Ard-Oideachas.[1] The HEA has a statutory responsibility for the effective governance of higher education in Ireland.[2] It provides policy advice to the Irish Government across various aspects of the mission of higher education. According to their website, the aim of the HEA is "to create a coherent system of diverse institutions with distinct missions, which is responsive to the social, cultural and economic development of Ireland and its people and supports the achievement of national objectives".[3]
The authority has a statutory responsibility, at central government level, for the governance and regulation of higher education institutions and the higher education system.[4] The authority is responsible for the funding of Irish universities, institutes of technology and other third level colleges.
The HEA was responsible for administering the Programme for Research in Third Level Institutions (PRTLI), which provided funding for research from 1998 to around 2018.[5][6][7]
