UCD Rosemount Environmental Research Station was officially launched by Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine, Simon Coveney TD, in September 2011. It is a state-of-the-art plant and environmental research facility under the joint management of the School of Biology and Environmental Science and School of Agriculture and Food Science, University College Dublin, Ireland. Rosemount house and lands have a rich history dating back to 1780 as the seat of the Corballis family.

All facilities are available for use by UCD faculty and students, external academics and industry users. Read more >
