IFSA - UNIVERSITY COLLEGE CORK PARTNERSHIP
Cork, Ireland
WHY STUDY IN CITY?
A beautiful, friendly city with hospitable and famously talkative residents, Cork is a city to explore. While treasuring its rich cultural heritage, Cork celebrates modern entertainment, including its annual international jazz and choral festivals. Cork is also renowned for an amazing food scene and farmers’ market. A mere five miles away is the Blarney Stone where, legend has it, you can acquire the “gift of gab.”
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Known for an ethos of independent thinking that reflects the local culture, UCC is a place to embrace lively classroom debates, explore an eclectic music scene, and shop for fresh fare at the English Market. The River Lee runs through the wooded campus, voted best in Ireland by students on multiple occasions. New facilities include a well-equipped gym that enhance the impressive Tudor Gothic quad.
Beyond campus, Cork has big-city perks but feels small and welcoming. One of Ireland’s oldest cities, it’s a place where traditional and hip blend easily.
Your program includes IFSA excursions (included, no extra cost) that help you get to know more of Ireland. These often include exploring the stunning West Coast and Kilkenny, a medieval city where you can get your fill of artisan foods and try your hand at the Gaelic sport, hurling.
