Be inspired by the history, culture, scenery, and courses of UCC

Located on the south coast, in Ireland's second city, University College Cork offers independent thinking, vibrant college life, and stunning surrounding scenery.

There are many unique academic opportunities at UCC from business, economics, and science to traditional Irish dance and music, folklore, and literature. In the QS World University rankings by subject, UCC has ranked highly for Nursing, Agriculture and Forestry, Law, English Language and Literature, Pharmacy and Pharmacology, and Medicine. In addition, UCC has been nationally ranked first among Irish universities for engineering (electrical and electronic) and environmental sciences. The Cork University Business School is one of the largest in Ireland and is dually accredited by the AACSB and AMBA professional bodies. There are many unique academic opportunities at UCC in a wide array of subject areas. Music is a particular strength and many Arcadia students take music courses at UCC in areas ranging from jazz to African and Asian music to traditional Irish music. 

You’ll find over 80 societies and clubs to choose from and the indoor sports facility, the Mardyke Arena, has recently undergone a €16 million redevelopment and is now one of the leading indoor sports facilities in Ireland.
