Law is the system of rules which governs society; practitioners of law are trained to analyse, interpret, and apply it. There are laws which apply to almost every aspect of life; including business and trade regulations, criminal activity, family disputes, property development, and European law.

This course is designed to combine a strong grounding in Irish Law and in the Irish language, including advanced oral and written work, knowledge of literature, culture and institutions, as well as analytical and interpretative skills. The third year is spent on two approved internships in either Irish, European, or other international institutions and workplaces.

Careers in Solicitor/Barrister, Investment Manager, Company Taxation.

To become a legal professional, it is normal to pass examinations set by the Law Society of Ireland, and serve an apprenticeship for an additional two years.
