About University College Dublin
University College Dublin traces its origins to the Catholic University of Ireland, founded in 1854 with John Henry Newman as its first rector. It became University College Dublin within the National University of Ireland in 1908 and later moved from the city centre to its Belfield campus in south Dublin. It is now Ireland's largest university, with a sizeable international student body and overseas teaching operations.
