Astronomy Society

AstroSoc — We're out of this world! A society to join for all those interested in space, stars, astronomy and astrophysics.

The Astronomy Society of University of Galway is for all students interested in astronomy or astrophysics — whether studying or just curious. We hold events each week, at which we show various astronomy and space-related documentaries and movies. We  also organise lectures on interesting topics from students and professors of astronomy, and collaborate with other societies to bring you fun social events. Most excitingly, we organise larger events such as trips abroad and observing nights for everyone to get a closer look at the stars!


We are affiliated with the Institute of Physics and a member of the Irish Federation of Astronomy Societies.

Meetings

  • Don't forget to follow our Facebook and Twitter for updates on more irregular events like observing nights!
