The programme is for students who wish to study Irish law in depth, whilst also acquiring a broad knowledge of French Law and a high level of competence in the French language and French legal terminology. The programme enable 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, motivated, autonomous learners who will profit from their knowledge and understanding of two culture and of two of the world's most important legal systems - the Common Law and Civil Law.
We strive for a learning environment that encourages students to work individually or as part of a team, so 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. A year at a partner French university is an integral part of this programme.
To these ends the programme uses teaching, learning and assessment approaches such as tutorials, seminars, supervised academic writing, work placement and simulations of professional practice.
