To mark the 40th Anniversary of the University of Limerick, a UL Alumni Copse has been planted in recognition of our students. Forty lime trees were planted in a spiral formation each tree representing the students who graduated in that year.

The full academic year will be marked with a series of events and initiatives involving staff, students, alumni and the many friends, supporters and members of the wider community who have been part of the UL story over the past four decades. The Official Launch of the UL40 year will take place on campus from Friday 28th – Sunday 30th September and members of the public are being encouraged to visit the campus and enjoy a huge array of free activities and events that will be taking place.
