DCU is proud to be part of the community, and our door is always open.

Every year, thousands of community members visit our campuses in Glasnevin and Drumcondra to learn, play, socialise and make use of our many facilities. If you haven’t already, come and visit us! 

DCU is a 'University of Place' that aims to be a valuable resource for North Dublin. That’s why our engagement with local communities extends way beyond our campuses and into the wider region. As a University, we have an important role in supporting the social and economic development of our communities. The ‘DCU in the Community’ banner captures just some of the work we do with community members, schools and local authorities, in the four key areas below.
