This programme is for students who wish to study the law of Ireland and acquire a profound understanding of how law works in theory and practice, both in Ireland and elsewhere. The programme enables students to proceed to professional training as lawyers in Ireland and elsewhere but also provides knowledge, skills and experience applicable in a wide variety of careers.
We aim for students to be active, autonomous learner, who are conscious of the social, cultural and political dimension of the law, as well as having the academic basis for a successful career in law and more widely applicable knowledge and skills.
We strive for a learning environment that encourages students to work individually or as part of a team, so that they can develop their own and others' leadership, teamwork and communication skills. Small-group teaching, online collaboration and practice-based learning are key elements of this.
To these ends the programme uses teaching, learning and assessment approaches such as tutorials, seminars, supervised academic writing, work placements and simulations of professional practice.
