Current Postgrads

Welcome to the CACSSS Graduate School!

There are well over 300 research students and over 600 taught postgrads in the College of Arts, Celtic Studies and Social Sciences (CACSSS). The CACSSS Graduate School aims to enhance the student experience and to provide a range of courses and facilities which foster a high quality research culture. 

The Graduate School works with the College’s Schools and the UCC Graduate Studies Office to develop new initiatives to ensure that CACSSS provides a vibrant teaching and research environment. We want to ensure that your graduate experience in CACSSS is as rewarding as possible, fulfilling your expectations, including those associated with the career options you choose in the future.

The Graduate School delivers postgraduate training modules and organises events for research students in the humanities and social sciences. We have developed a range of modules to enhance both general and discipline-specific research skills, and also offer a series of graduate education modules and themed masterclasses. We thus aim to complement the various Schools' graduate education and cultural programmes and to provide you with intellectual, social and networking opportunities across the College.

In addition to work spaces and facilities offered by Schools we provide a number of work stations in the Berkeley Centre in the Boole Library and the Wandesford Quay Reserah Facility for exclusive use by CACSSS research students.
