University College Dublin (UCD)

University College Dublin (UCD) is a dynamic, modern university where cutting-edge research and scholarship provide a stimulating intellectual environment - the ideal surroundings for learning and discovery.

For over 150 years, UCD has produced graduates of remarkable distinction including famous surgeons, architects, entrepreneurs and five of Ireland´s Taoisigh (Prime Ministers). Perhaps the best known of all its graduates is the writer James Joyce, who completed his Bachelor of Arts at the university in 1902.

Established in 1854, the university played a key role in the history of the modern Irish State and today it plays a leading part in shaping Ireland´s future. As Ireland forges a new identity through relationships with international partners, the university will adopt an increasingly international outlook.

To accommodate the university´s phenomenal growth during the 1960s and 1970s, UCD relocated from St Stephen's Green in Dublin city centre, where it was first established, to the Belfield campus 4 km from the city centre. The university still maintains Newman House on St Stephen´s Green in Dublin, one of its original buildings and there is also a campus facility at Blackrock, Dublin, where the UCD Michael Smurfit Graduate School of Business is located.
