Yes, there are fully funded scholarships for a Master's in Civil Engineering in Ireland, but they are highly competitive and limited in number.

- Government of Ireland International Education Scholarship (GOI-IES): Covers full tuition plus a €10,000 stipend for one year. Open to non-EU/EEA students in postgraduate programs, including engineering. About 60 awarded annually, with applications typically open January - March.
- Irish Research Council (IRC) Scholarships: Provides €25,000/year plus full tuition for research-focused master’s programs. Application periods vary.
- University-specific scholarships: Some universities offer partial to full tuition waivers for high-achieving international students, but full funding is rare.

Scholarship availability, amounts, and deadlines are subject to change each year.
