Introduction

UCD offers a wide range of high qualiy graduate programmes across its seven Colleges. Each UCD College has its own Graduate School which has the remit to co-ordinate and develop graduate education in the College. In addition UCD is home to a number of primary Research Institutes as well as several more specialist Research Centres.

UCD Graduate Studies

In UCD we are committed to the enhancement of our research training and of our graduate programmes, both of which have expanded considerably in recent years. As graduate student numbers increase, so too does our commitment to excellence and quality and to the encouragement and personal support of our graduate students.

Professor Julie Berndsen is the Dean of Graduate Studies at UCD. The Dean and her team coordinate Graduate Education in UCD. Please do not hesitate to contact the Dean’s office for any general queries you may have concerning any of our Graduate programmes in the University.
