About the club

Build with AI,
right here in Cork.

We're the Claude Builders Club at University College Cork: a student community learning, building and shipping real projects with Claude, whatever your course or experience.

Two club members at the Claude stand on campus
01 / Come say hello.

02 / Learn from each other.

From a first prompt to a finished project.

We're a club for doing, not just talking about AI. Everyone is a builder here, whether you're new to AI or a seasoned coder.

We run hands-on workshops on Claude and the tools around it, host tech talks, and put on hackathons where teams turn an idea into something that works in an afternoon.

Rooted in Cork

Part of a wider community.

We're one of Anthropic's Claude Builder Clubs, a network of student-led builder communities at universities around the world.

Here at UCC, it's about the people next to you: a teammate for the next hackathon, someone to debug with, and a room full of people who want to make things.
