Study in Galicia

Through the Erasmus student exchange programme, UCC undergraduate students avail of the possibility of spending one academic year at the Galician universities of Santiago de Compostela (www.usc.es) or A Coruña (www.udc.es). The Irish Centre for Galician Studies offers information and advice to students of B.Comm International and B.A. Language and Cultural Studies who are placed in these universities. Similarly, we provide advice to Galician students who are planning or have already decided to study in UCC for one year.
