Founded in 1845 as Queen's College Cork (one of three Queen's Colleges established by Sir Robert Peel — Cork, Belfast, Galway — providing university education for non-Anglicans in Ireland), becoming UCC in 1908. Approximately 24,000 students. Distinguished particularly in food science (Cork is at the heart of Ireland's significant dairy and food industries — Kerry Group, Dairygold, Glanbia all have major Cork-region operations). Strong Irish-language and Celtic Studies programmes (UCC's Department of Modern Irish is one of Ireland's leading).
Always confirm a university's current accreditation with
the named national authority, and that the qualification is recognised in
the country where you intend to use it, before enrolling or paying any
fees. AlmiStudy records information to help you check — it is not an
endorsement.
Why this is free
AlmiStudy is part of AlmiWorld. It is free because its purpose is to
help people find their way to education — and the wider project
supports the Shamool Foundation, a free school for street children in
Lahore (60 students, lunch, books and uniforms provided).
