    DCU do the awarding themselves under the (I think) Universities act of 1987.

    UCD is a constituent university of NUI, hence NUI awards it's degrees.

    DCU is one of the 3 independent Universities in the country, the others being UL and the College of the Holy and Undivided Trinity of Queen Elizabeth near Dublin.
