The HCI@UCD group is a shining example of the capacity for cross-disciplinary collaborative research to produce human-centred digital technologies shaping each of our lives for the better.

Kevin Doherty

AdAstra Assistant Professor

I have been a member of the HCI@UCD group since beginning my PhD in 2017. During this time, I contributed to organising the HCI@UCD seminars, which provided the opportunity to connect with distinguished researchers from other institutions. This group has also fostered a strong sense of collegiality and support within the HCI community at UCD.

Dr Claudette Pretorius

Assistant Professor

The productive and welcoming atmosphere at HCI@UCD made my time in Ireland a fantastic experience. I had many opportunities to develop my skills and explore new areas of research.
