UCD Japan

The UCD Japan Group was established on the 15th June 2016. The group acts to highlight and support links between UCD and our various partners in Japan, including the embassy, enterprises and research funding organisations. The group is a cross-disciplinary all-university unit, consisting of academic and professional staff with student representatives.
