University College Cork - UCC
 University College Cork is the principal university in the province of Munster, and the largest outside Dublin. UCC is also a constituent university of the National University of Ireland. The present college was founded in 1845, but there has been an educational establishment in Cork for over 1,200 years.
UCC has over 12,000 students and an academic staff of over 1,700. Degrees are granted in all disciplines and there is a strong emphasis on research and close connections with industry and with the local community.
The main campus of UCC is half a mile west of Cork city centre,
about 15 minutes walk along Washington Street from the UCC Downtown Centre in the Grand Parade. The College Gates on Western Road are ceremonial (foot access only): the entrance to the main campus is on College Road, and there are side entrances on Donovan's Hill, Gaol Walk, and other entrances on College Road. Other UCC locations around the city tend to have a single main entrance.
There are usually plenty of taxis in the city and at the airport, rail and bus stations but check with your contact in UCC before arrival to make sure you tell the driver the correct address. Taxis from the city centre cost about £5.
When in the city, make sure and call to UCC, the principal university in Munster.
