Centenary Celebration - Civil, Electrical & Electronic and Mechanical and Materials Engineering
Friday, 22 March, 2019
UCD College of Engineering and Architecture are delighted to announce the centenary celebration of the UCD Schools of Civil, Electrical and Electronic and Mechanical and Materials Engineering. Since 1919, over 7,500 engineering graduates from these three Schools have gone on to play leading roles in industry, business, academia and society.
We are marking this historic occasion by holding a black-tie gala dinner in O'Reilly Hall on Friday, October 18.
We want our alumni to gather together to celebrate this historic occasion with their classmates and friends. This promises to be a night of celebration, reconnection and nostalgia and we look forward to welcoming you back to UCD!
We are also delighted to announce that UCD Mechanical Engineering graduate and award-winning DJ Tom Dunne will be our MC on the evening. Tom has worked as a broadcaster with some of the biggest radio stations in Ireland, including Newstalk, Today FM and 98FM, as well as working as a presenter on RTÉ.
All proceeds will be used to provide support for engineering students who are struggling financially in UCD and to ensure a greater diversity of students in the Schools.
Get your tickets here!
