The UCD Quinn School of Business (Scoil Ghnó Uí Chuinn, COBÁC), commonly The Quinn School, or simply Quinn, is the building in which the UCD School of Business's undergraduate programme is based.
A short while after the building was named UCD reorganised its academic structure, moving from a system of faculties and departments to colleges and schools. This has caused some confusion over the standing of the Quinn "School" [sic]. The UCD College of Business and Law has two constituent schools; the School of Business and the School of Law. The School of Business is an administrative unit, The Quinn School and Michael Smurfit School are physical buildings.
