Rationale for Establishment
The established mission of the UCD Clinton Institute is to provide a focus for research and postgraduate teaching in American Studies, and to promote public discussions about the US in Ireland. It offers MA and PhD programmes in the field and also runs a programme of activities devoted to advancing academic research. Drawing on many disciplines the Institute offers a dynamic, interdisciplinary coverage of American politics, culture and society.
