There is a range of support available for Science students from our Science Programme Office, Student Advisers and the Chaplaincy.
Science Programme Office
As you embark on this new phase of your academic life in UCD, I hope this year will offer you many opportunities and challenges and the chance to forge new and lasting friendships that will offer you both support and fun! I hope this experience will allow you to achieve all your goals and with our help you will be encouraged to strive to fulfil your potential.
Our aim is that all communication between us will flow clearly and effectively. We work closely with the Student Advisers and central administration allowing us to provide you with all the support, knowledge, experience and pastoral care required throughout your studies in UCD.
The Science Programme Office will be your first point of contact and we encourage you to come to us for information, support and advice on any issue. All our contact details are at http://www.ucd.ie/science/contact.htm

Student Advisers
Aoife FitzGerald is the Student Adviser for Science and her office is Room 121 in the Science Centre (Hub) adjacent to the Science Programme Office. Aoife is available to meet with students in relation to personal, social or practical issues, from simple requests for information to more serious matters.

Chaplaincy
The Chaplaincy offers friendship, support, assistance and encouragement. An open-door policy exists to enable students feel welcome and to seek assistance, especially in times of distress, illness and bereavement. There is particular attention given to students’ special needs at the beginning and end of the academic year.
Any of the chaplains can also be contacted via the general office situated at the Newman building G002. Contact Ms. Anne Tynan, Senior Executive Assistant on +353 1 7168372 or via email: anne.tynan@ucd.ie
