Research VPN

Information on Applying for a Research VPN Account

The UCD Research VPN service allows registered UCD research students to remotely gain access to restricted internal research servers and services. This service is for registered UCD research students who do not have access to a UCD Staff account and are therefore unable to use the Staff VPN.

• The Research VPN does not allow access to UCD Business Systems such as eProcurement, eFinancials, CoreHR and MyFiles.
• Undergraduate, taught masters, visiting students and professional diploma students who are engaged in research activity are not eligible to apply for this service, this service is currently available to registered UCD research students only.
