Bachelor of Laws [L.L.B] [Law and Political Science] From Trinity College Dublin

If your career or intellectual interests in politics and public service would be strengthened by a knowledge of the law or you are interested in pursuing a legal career and want your study of law to be informed by a wider political understanding, then Law and Political Science may be the course for you.?

During the four years of studies, students will also have the opportunity to study all of the core subjects required by the legal professional bodies.

Both the Department of Political Science and the Law School place great emphasis on innovative thinking and independent thought. We offer a wide-range of research-led modules in the final two years of the programme thus affording you the opportunity to focus on your developing area of interest.?

Both the Political Science and Law areas are small in size, compared to other universities; however, this fosters a supportive and close relationship with the student body and a number of student societies and publications, notably the Law Society,?
