IOP Ireland is excited to announce that the 2022 Spring Meeting will go ahead on Saturday March 12^th in Cork.

The annual Tyndall Lecture is an opportunity for young people in schools on the island of Ireland to connect their classwork to modern areas of physics.

Annual presentation contest hosted by the Physics and Astronomy Society involving our undergraduate students and lecturers.  

The  IOPI spring meeting 2020 at University College Cork has been postponed until further notice. 

On the 4th of March at 6.30pm in G05, Western Gateway Building, UCC, three distinguished women in STEM will visit UCC to speak about their experiences and achievements in the world of physics and science. The event is open to all. The confirmed speakers are: 

A big thanks is owed to all the exhibitors and visitors who helped make ESLW such a success! 

Make sure to add 'Above and Beyond' to your Culture Night itinerary!

A unique exhibition which showcases some of the most significant and surprising astronomical breakthroughs over the last century.

Had a great week helping organising Experimental Physics experiments for CTYI. We definitely saw some future physicists in the bunch!

Had another great day exploring the weird and wonderful parts of Physics as part of the Eureka Camps! ️

A fantastic time was had yesterday with the students from Eureka Camps. We hope we both excited and attracted them to exploring more physics in the future!

Big thanks to Loise Shanahan for running the physics portion of CTYI in UCC this year! We love sharing our fascination with light, electricity and magnetism! 

We had a blast with transition year students, from all over Cork last week, building these gummy bear wave machines. This just goes to show that Physics can be fascinating and delicious!

UCC scientist honored at SFSB Conference

A conference was held in honour of UCC Physics lecturer Niall O Murchadha at the end of May last.Alll lectures took place on the West Wing of the Quad.
