Ulster University is delighted to announce details of its 2015 Irish Studies Summer School!

Building on last year’s success, the School of Irish Language and Literature have designed an exciting interdisciplinary program that will appeal to students who would like to broaden their knowledge of Irish Studies across film, history, literature, peace and conflict studies and politics.

This program (24 June – 31 July 2015) – the only one of its kind in Ireland – will enable participants to sample the rich cultural heritage of north-west Ireland, while immersing themselves in the Irish language with a week-long residency in the Donegal ‘Gaeltacht’ (Irish-speaking region).

Participants will accrue credit points for the six-week course for which they will also receive a certificate from Ulster University.
