The American University of Notre Dame is hosting an information session in Dublin on Wednesday  for second-level students who are interested in the institution’s Study Abroad: Ireland course.

Designed for fourth, fifth and sixth year students, the two-week course takes place in Dublin and at the Notre Dame centre at Kylemore in Connemara.

Irish students will participate with a number of US-based students and participates will be encouraged to take a closer look at their country’s literary and cultural history over 12 days in Dublin and Connemara.

From "exploring the ruins at Inishbofin and Inishark to studying at historic Kylemore Abbey", organisers say the program will allow students to investigate Ireland “from new and interesting perspectives”.

The programme will count as a course credit for those wishing to partake in a college course in the United States.

The university’s office of pre-college programs will hold an information session on the 19th October from 4:30-7pm at the Keough-Naughton Notre Dame Centre, O’Connell House, 58 Merrion Square, Dublin 2.
