Program Overview

Program Description:

Students begin this program with two five-week intensive academic courses taught by faculty onsite, followed by a seven-week full time internship placement.

Students complete each component consecutively, which will allow students dedicated time to focus on the academic courses and internship separately, providing a better balance between study and professional development. Some three-day weekends have been built into the program, leaving plenty of time for exploring the rich local culture of the host site.

Setting Description:

As the capital of the Republic of Ireland, Dublin is one of the liveliest cities in Europe. With one of the youngest populations comprising people from many different parts of Europe and the globe, the city has a full and varied cultural and intellectual life, which brings together the best of traditional Ireland and of modern Europe. Dublin is particularly fortunate to have many theaters, museums and galleries throughout the city. Famous for its literary and musical tradition, Ireland’s capital has been home to well known writers, playwrights, actors, and musicians for many years. A particular feature is the tradition of live music in every conceivable venue, from street artists to the National Concert Hall to the many pubs where traditional Irish music still flourishes. In the literary field, the contribution of native sons has been outstanding, with Jonathan Swift, Oliver Goldsmith, Oscar Wilde, George Bernard Shaw, W.B. Yeats, and Samuel Beckett amongst the most prominent.
