University College, Dublin

Ireland Flag

University College Dublin is a dynamic university committed to excellence in teaching and learning inspired by excellence in research and scholarship. It is Ireland's premier university, situated at Belfield, a 132 hectare campus 4km from Dublin city centre.

Established in 1854, University College Dublin has played a leading role in the history of the modern Irish state and it is dedicated to playing a key role in shaping Ireland's future.

As Ireland forges a new identity through relationships with international partners, University College Dublin will adopt an increasingly international outlook. One key element of this is outreach to China, evidenced in the establishment of the UCD Confucius Institute for Ireland in 2006.
