There are no guarantees for any modules at UCD, and some modules are in high demand and will be difficult to register for. The language of instruction at UCD is English. You can find a list of available course here.

Student Perspective

"Most of my courses divided my final grade into several parts, continuous assessment, which was quizzes throughout the semester, papers/projects and the final exam. The final exam was on average weighted to be about 50% of my final grade. While this may seem like a lot of pressure, the final exams were very straight forward so it wasn't difficult to do well if you put in the effort to prepare." Fall 2014, Major: Biological Sciences
