Message from Vice President for Research

Welcome to the Sabbatical Research Leave Website.  As a research-intensive University UCC values the well-described benefits of sabbatical leave  including  fostering talent, creating leadership, knowledge transfer and network development. It is an excellent way to  broaden the horizons of academics and thus have a positive influence on student learning and experience. 

Sabbatical Research Leave is administered via each College Sabbatical Research Leave Committee and overseen by the University Sabbatical Research Leave Committee which is currently chaired by Prof Alan Kelly
