The UCD Law Alumni Community
John O'Donnell SC UCD Law Alumni Award recipient 2024 speaking at the Award Ceremony
As a leading law school with a history that dates back to 1911, the UCD law alumni network consists of a wide and influential group of individuals within the legal profession, judiciary, politics, the business community, non-governmental organisations and charity sector. To enable our alumni to enjoy social and networking opportunities with their counterparts, we endeavour to build a strong alumni community whilst organising and facilitating events on their behalf, both in Ireland and overseas. If you are a graduate of UCD law and haven’t as yet signed up to receive our Alumni Newsletter, you can do so by registering your details at (opens in a new window)this link.
Milestone Reunion 2026
We have been hosting Milestone Reunions since we moved into the Sutherland School of Law just over 10 years ago. We are currently working on plans for the 2026 Reunion in the Autumn of 2026. We will be celebrating their Milestone Reunions with the BCL classes of 1986, 1996 and 2006 plus the BBLS class of 2006. We will announce the reunion date shortly.
The evening will provide an opportunity for graduates of these years to reunite with classmates, renew old friendships, see how Belfield campus has been transformed in recent years and get a taste of student life today.
These Milestone Reunions have been a major event in our calendar over the past 10 years and the links below give an idea of the atmosphere of these evenings in the School:
