University College Cork - The Máire F Mulcahy Prize

The Máire F Mulcahy Prize

You receive a gold medal as the best overall final-year Zoology student at University College Cork (UCC). The prize is awarded once a year at the annual prize-giving ceremony of the School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences (BEES). It honours Professor Máire F Mulcahy, the first woman to hold a Zoology professorship at UCC, and was created when she retired. This is recognition, not a cash grant.

Who can apply

• University: You study at University College Cork.
• Field of study: You study Zoology.
• Study phase: You are in your final year.
• Grades: You are judged the best overall student in your year.
• Nationality: Any nationality can apply.

How to apply
