UCC's Short Course Programme Spring 2025
At Adult Continuing Education, University College Cork, our short courses for Autumn/Winter 2024 are currently underway and are no longer accepting applications.
Since 2005, ACE has offered an extensive programme of short courses for the autumn/winter and spring academic semesters. The number of courses on offer has increased steadily over the years as has the number of participants that are attracted to our programmes.

Typically, the courses we offer are in the following areas:
- Art, Art History & Culture
- Literature & Creative Writing
- History & Genealogy, Anthropology & Folklore
- Climate, the Environment & Sustainable Living
- Personal & Professional Development
