The Institute of Technology, Carlow (ITC), originally Regional Technical College, Carlow, is one of the original Regional Technical Colleges. It is located to the south of Carlow, Ireland on Kilkenny Road. It was the first such college announced and located in 1964. The institute was renamed Austin Waldron Regional Technical College, Carlow (AWRTC Carlow) in 1989 after a past CEO of County Carlow Vocational Education Committee, Austin Waldron, who was instrumental in helping the cause of the Regional Technical College in Carlow; it continued to use this name unofficially after 1992 when it reverted to its original name and in 1998 the institute accepted its current name. The institute has three campuses: the main campus is located on the Kilkenny Road just south of Carlow town, the second smaller campus is located off Summerhill Road and overlooking Wexford town and the third is in the old Cleremont Convent in Rathnew, County Wicklow. The institute also had a Kilkenny Campus previously, and currently offers a single course in Kilkenny in association with the NUIM Kilkenny Campus of St Kieran's College.
