UCC announce start date for new academic term

UCC confirmed to its students and staff that that its 2020/'21 academic term will commence on September 28th. Teaching will be delivered in a hybrid model, which combines online and face-to-face elements such as offering online lectures for larger class groupings and offering face-to-face seminars, tutorials and laboratory and field classes for smaller groups.

 

The university is putting into place a tutoring scheme for all first year students to support their transition into third level.

 
In an email to students, Deputy President and Registrar, Professor John O’Halloran stated: “The safety of our students and our staff is paramount. As much face-to-face teaching and learning as possible will be provided subject to the prevailing national public health requirements.” 

 

The last day of the UCC term will be December 18th. UCC also confirms that in light of current government policy, all supplemental examinations will be online.
