Over 100,000 international students come to Ireland each year. Some come during the summer to learn English, but many come for longer to study at Bachelor’s, Master’s or Doctorate level.

CUI has been at the forefront of welcoming these students and helping them integrate into life in a new country. Over the years we have co–ordinated a welcome program, a host family network, international cafes during term–time, cultural events and weekends away. We often work in tandem with a variety of local churches and our work in Ireland is also a partnership with Friends International
If you are an international student coming to Ireland and want to connect with one of our ministries please email ism@cui.ie
Some of the things going on for internationals around Ireland:
An opportunity to help international students settle in to university life.
Regular gatherings in many cities across the island to help internationals practice english, make friends with both people from the city and beyond.
