Trinity College Dublin

The Law School has students of the highest calibre and a strong team of lecturers and professors. It is ideally situated on the historic campus of Trinity College Dublin, close to the courts, the Oireachtas (the National Parliament) and government departments.

As Ireland's oldest Law School, Trinity is strongly committed to the service of society through education, research and public service activities.

As educators, the Law School staff seek to promote standards of academic excellence, and in particular, the ability to think analytically, among the student body. Together the Law School staff and students form a vibrant community inspired by the values of mutual respect and co-operation.

The Law School's commitment to rigorous legal scholarship has placed it at the forefront of legal research in Ireland, with staff members involved in writing and editing leading textbooks, casebooks and commentaries on administrative law, civil procedure, confict of laws, constitutional law, European Union law, environmental law, equity, evidence, family law, human rights law, international law, land law, public interest law, sports law torts and trade union law. In addition, the Law School is home to one of the Ireland's leading periodicals, the Dublin University Law Journal and to the Trinity College Law Review published by the student members of the College's Law Society.

Public service is another very important aspect of the Law School's activities. Many staff and student members are heavily involved with the governmental, commercial and voluntary sectors both nationally and internationally, in such areas as children's rights, constitutional law reform, environmental policy, family law reform, legal aid, law reform, minority rights, public interest and pro bono litigation, social welfare policy and women's rights.
