School Description:

Trinity College has the world’s oldest tradition of modern language studies, with chairs dating back to 1776.

The School’s research in literary, language and cultural studies ranges from the medieval to the very contemporary. Well-qualified research students are welcomed in all Schools within the School; enquiries for M.Litt. or Ph.D. research should be made in the first instance to the School or Centre concerned. In addition, a cluster of innovative taught postgraduate degrees offers a broad range of possibilities, leading to research or to professional practice in areas of language, literature and cultural life.

There are seven academic units within the School:

• the Centre for European Studies
• the Department of French
• the Department of Germanic Studies
• the Department of Hispanic Studies
• the Department of Irish & Celtic Languages
• the Department of Italian
• the Department of Russian & Slavonic Studies

At postgraduate level, courses are also offered directly by the School or by specialist units such as the Centre for Medieval & Renaissance Studies.
