Welcome to the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland

For over two hundred years RCSI has played a major role in medical education and training in Ireland. Founded in 1784 to train surgeons, a medical school was later established in 1886. Today RCSI has schools of Pharmacy, Physiotherapy, Nursing and healthcare management. In addition to Undergraduate education RCSI delivers postgraduate training and education through its Faculties of Radiology, Dentistry, Sports & Exercise Medicine and the school of Postgraduate Studies. The RCSI Research Institute is one of Ireland’s foremost research centres.

On behalf of the President and Council, welcome to the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI) incorporating its Schools of Medicine, Physiotherapy, Pharmacy and Nursing. For over two hundred years, the College has played a role in Irish surgical and medical education and although the beautiful original building has stood unchanged on the corner of St Stephen’s Green, since the College’s inception in 1784 its historic façade belies the RCSI’s progressive and innovative activities.

The Medical School dates from the 19th century with various postgraduate faculties added in the 20th century. More recently the College has become active abroad, in the provision of education, training and hospital management. Today more than 60 countries are represented on its international student body and the RCSI also has a strong international presence with Schools in both Malaysia and Bahrain . The Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland is independent, international and progressive - a unique medical institution.
