Tony Holohan officially resigned as Chief Medical Officer on the 1st of July.
The man who steered the country through the pandemic is becoming an Adjunct Full Professor of Public Health at UCD's College of Health and Agricultural Sciences.
He won't be paid though, as the role is not a salaried position.
UCD says it welcomes Dr. Holohan as someone of a "very high calibre" with experience in public health.
In March he said he would be leaving as CMO and taking up a position at Trinity College Dublin.
But following controversy over the Department of Health funding his open-ended secondment, he announced he would no longer take up that position.
