At University College Dublin, they provide a first-class education across their engineering disciplines, which are variously accredited by Engineers Ireland, the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) and the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (IoM3). Whatever the specialization, UCD places considerable emphasis on the mastery of analytical skills and the use of quantitative methods. Study is based on solid mathematical, scientific and engineering principles. Essentially, these are the fundamentals of engineering and they will enable students to navigate successfully through the challenges they will face in their future career.
As a University College Dublin Engineering student, students will enroll in a common first year, which allows them to gain an understanding of the many different engineering disciplines available, before being offered an unrestricted choice of specialization (subject to health and safety based capacity constraints). University College Dublin has the widest range of degree choices in Ireland and, after completing this common first year, students can choose from one of the following:
- Biomedical Engineering
- Chemical and Bioprocess Engineering
- Civil Engineering
- Electrical or Electronic Engineering
- Mechanical Engineering
- Structural Engineering with Architecture
