The Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences – Coláiste Ríoga na Máinleá in Éirinn), founded by Royal Charter of King George III in 1784, is Ireland's exclusive world-leading health sciences university and professional surgical training institution. Centred on Dublin's iconic St Stephen's Green and York Street, RCSI is solely dedicated to educating and training healthcare professionals and clinical leaders. With over 4,000 students representing more than 60 countries, RCSI delivers an intensely international medical training ecosystem.
