About the Program

The summer Galway program is ideal for students interested in learning about Irish studies in a lively, student-oriented city on Ireland’s west coast. Galway's magical combination of ancient history and contemporary culture makes it a great location for Irish studies.

The Galway program consists of one 5-week summer session offering academic coursework in literature, history, music, theatre, and Gaelic language taught by established Irish and U.S. scholars. Many of these courses include enticing field trips and excursions offering hands-on experience with the subject matter, such as walking tours of Galway, outings to the Connemara Gaeltacht (Gaelic-speaking area), live theatre performances, guest lectures by leading playwrights and directors, private Irish film screenings, and private in-class music concerts by leading traditional musicians and singers.

Participation in additional program tours and field trips also form an integral part of the program. Those with Irish roots can enroll in a 1-credit course to trace their family’s genealogy. Past students have even connected with local Irish relatives from their research in this course, and two students even discovered they were related, dating back to the 1600s.
