Incoming Visiting and Exchange Students
The Department of Philosophy warmly welcomes international visiting students who may be attending Trinity College for just one semester, or a full academic year. Such students may take any module from the Junior Fresher (JF) and/or Senior Fresher (SF) years. Under special circumstances, and with the proper background in philosophy and the approval of the Philosophy Visiting Student Coordinator, courses from the Junior Sophister (JS) and/or Senior Sophister (SS) years may be selected.
Exchange Students
The official list of exchange agreements/destinations can be found (https://www.tcd.ie/ssp/undergraduate/study-abroad/outgoing/destinations/)
Please note we no longer have an exchange linkage with Paris, but instead one with Koç University, Istanbul, Turkey.
Prospective Visiting Students
Further details on how to apply to come to Trinity as a visiting student are available on the Study at Trinity website. Any queries about course options may be directed to the Philosophy Visiting Student Coordinator, Dr Adrian Downey.
