Description

Students interested in the culture and history of Ireland are invited to spend their summer participating in this full study abroad course. The program offers a comprehensive introduction to Irish Studies through a combination of interdisciplinary seminars incorporating studies on Identity, Emigration, and Religion. Through a wide range of elective courses, students are allowed to choose the particular focus most interesting to them. Opportunities for cultural activities, specific to each elective, are incorporated into the program to complement the course objectives taught and are an invaluable part of the overall educational experience.

Highlights

Galway has more of a small-town and university feel to it than Dublin, and offers easy access to more of the traditional landscapes students might associate with Ireland, including the Cliffs of Moher, Connemara and the Aran Islands. The Irish language thrives with folk in Connemara still speaking Irish as their native tongue. The arts thrive in this bohemian city, as music, theatrical production and literature are among the elements that contribute to this decidedly studentcentered city's humble appeal. Nicknamed "Ireland's Cultural Heart," Galway offers students the ideal opportunity to explore traditional, yet vibrant, Irish culture through numerous festivals, celebrations and events. The city hosts the Galway Arts Festival every July, drawing more than 150,000 people for its international celebration of performing and visual arts. Other events worth savoring include the Galway Races in August and the Galway International Oyster Festival in September.
