Law Plus in UL is one of few legal courses where a student can benefit from the study of an additional humanities module of their choice, but also have achieved the requisite credits to sit the New York bar exam. There are very few Universities which offer this level of opportunity - so UL was the obvious choice for me!

Marta is a recent graduate of the MA in Applied Linguistics here in UL. She shares her experiences of the programme, the University of Limerick and Ireland below.

I would recommend the course; I would also really recommend UL as I felt very supported by staff and indeed my fellow students. I find when people think about applied linguistics they should not just be thinking about an academic or professional view of linguistics, because you will learn a lot for your personal life as well.
