Irish Studies Summer Program (in English)
Ulster University is delighted to introduce the Irish Studies Summer Program. Its setting (Counties Tyrone, Donegal and Derry) is in some of the most beautiful and culturally rich regions of Western Europe, adjacent to the Causeway Coast and the Donegal and Sperrin Mountains. Ulster’s interdisciplinary program will enable participants to acquire specialist knowledge of Irish Studies across drama, film, history, and literature.
Located in Derry/Londonderry, the Magee campus is named after the College founded by Martha Magee in 1845. It is located only a short walk along the River Foyle away from the city walls and comprises a mixture of historical and new buildings and modern and traditional facilities.
LOCATION
As one of the oldest inhabited places in Ireland the city has strong traditions and a wealth of culture, which combines with an active social scene to make the city an exciting place to live and study. The most visibly striking features of the city are its historic walls. Derry/Londonderry is the only remaining completely walled city in Ireland and one of the finest examples of a walled city in Europe.
The city is perfectly located, acting as a springboard into some of Ireland's most dramatic and evocative landscapes. Picturesque country villages, the breathtaking Donegal hills, spectacular views along the Causeway Coast and the mountainous terrain of the Sperrins, are all within a 50 mile radius. Consequently Derry/Londonderry is a popular destination with visitors and the Magee campus is only eight miles from City of Derry airport. The city has excellent public transport services to other parts of Northern Ireland as well as the Republic of Ireland and the Waterside Railway Station and Foyle Street Bus Centre are only a five minute drive away from the campus by taxi
Course Description
