PROGRAM INFORMATION:

This program is an initiative of the Irish and Irish American Studies program at the College of Charleston. Students are able to take courses that will not only count towards a minor in Irish and Irish American Studies, but also take courses counting towards a major/minor in English or History, or a minor in Film Studies.

The program will be based at Dublin City University (DCU) in Dublin, Ireland. Students will live in DCU dorms and attend classes in a DCU classroom. There will be several day trips in and around Dublin, most using public transportation, as well as a full-day excursion to Glendalough, an early Medieval monastery south of Dublin. The program will also include a 8-day excursion to the west of Ireland and to Northern Ireland.

Students will have the opportunity to partake in optional urban and rural hiking.

Non-CofC students are encouraged to apply.
