My first time at Trinity was as an international visiting student during my undergraduate years. I was very impressed (astounded, actually) by the level and quality of tuition I received. After obtaining my Bachelor's degree, I enrolled in the Diploma in Old Irish, which proved to be excellent to acquire the knowledge of Old Irish necessary for entering the Master's programme where I continued my studies the following year. Among the many strong sides of the M.Phil. in Early Irish, I must specifically mention the impressive variety of taught courses and overall multidisciplinary approach. The courses are very well structured and, combined with guided research practice and thesis writing, prepare the students perfectly for further academic careers. Beyond that, it is important to note that at Trinity the students are always treated with respect. I am incredibly grateful to the Department of Irish & Celtic Languages and to all my professors for this amazing and life-changing experience.

For me, this was the most enjoyable part of the course, learning how others manage risk and system change differently to my own experience.

What interested me most when reading about Linguistics at Trinity was its interdisciplinary nature. The study of linguistics often intersects with areas such as psychology, philosophy and neuroscience, so each week offers something new and exciting. Language is something we use every day without even thinking about it, but through studying linguistics, I’ve begun to understand how this intrinsic human ability shapes the very way we interact with the world around us. I would 100% recommend linguistics at Trinity to anyone who loves analysing language, wants a diverse course of study, and is interested in working with linguists and students both from across the college and across the world.
