  Dublin City University - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dublin City University (DCU) is a university situated in Glasnevin on the Northside of Dublin in Ireland.
DCU allows students to "de-register" and switch courses, this causes an artificially high non-completion rate (among the highest for the university sector), as the movement of these students (mainly first year undergraduates) into other courses within the university is not taken into account by university league tables.
The university is headed, titularly, by the Chancellor, until her recent death the Hon Ms Justice Mella Carroll, the President, currently Professor Ferdinand von Prondzynski, is the "chief officer" of the university, comparable to that of a chief executive officer.
