UCD Law Info Evening

The UCD Law Open Evening is on Tuesday 11th October.

On the evening there will be a series of short talks explaining the ten degree options on offer, the career opportunities for law graduates and what it is like to study abroad for a year as part of your degree. 
Law graduates who have taken very different career directions will talk about their experience in UCD and why they chose their specific career path. 

There will also be the opportunity to talk directly to academic representatives from the other Schools that partner with law to offer the various degrees. There will be representatives from Business, History, Politics, Philosophy, Social Justice and Economics in attendance and the languages that can be studied alongside a law degree (French, Chinese and Irish). 

The Open Evening is also a great opportunity for sixth year students to take a tour of the unique facilities on offer in the new Sutherland School of Law building and really get a feel for what it would be like to study law in UCD while at the same time meeting lecturers and law students.
