What is Outreach?

Our Outreach programme aims to connect UCD with the community, fostering engagement and widening participation to higher education.

We collaborate with a range of community partners including students, DEIS schools, Further Education Colleges and community groups 

Our outreach programme is designed to give you an opportunity to experience UCD, meet our Access Leaders, learn about our entry pathways and demystify what it is like to be a student in UCD.
