UCD Access and Lifelong Learning

Part-Time Learning at UCD

We have many options to study part-time at UCD, whether it's for interest, professional development, or to move to a full-time undergraduate programme.

Lifelong Learning gives you the chance to study specific areas or subjects, from History to Psychology, in a low-pressure environment, and meet like-minded people.

Our Open Learning programme offers you the choice of over 400 undergraduate modules to pick from, with options from across the colleges.

The UCD Access Course is one year of structured study that will prepare you for the academic and social life of being a full-time UCD student.
