The Post-Graduate Diploma in Law offers an excellent grounding in law for those looking to prepare for the Law Society’s FE-1 entrance examinations to qualify as a solicitor, or to pursue other careers in the public service, regulation, other professional services and sectors requiring comprehensive legal knowledge and analytic skills. 

The programme provides students with a deep understanding of the principles and institutional framework of Irish Law. It equips students with high-level reasoning and analytical skills enabling them to solve legal problems in a range of social, commercial and regulatory contexts, and to critically evaluate legal rules and processes. 

The Post-Graduate Diploma in Law offers small-class sizes to facilitate interactive learning and provides students with access to a team of expert law lecturers, many of whom have extensive experience of legal practice. 

The programme is designed to afford students maximum flexibility in tailoring a law degree to meet their own educational and professional needs. Students take Legal Skills and five additional modules chosen from covering both FE1 subjects and topics at the cutting edge of law and legal systems.
