Multiple opportunities for intern placements are available in governmental or private organizations. Interns live in flats or with Irish families. Participants take classes on modern Irish History, Irish Literature, and Irish Society and Politics two days each week at the Institute of Public Administration. Courses are taught by faculty from Trinity College, University College Dublin, and the Institute of Public Administration. Interns have access to the library and facilities of the Institute.
Students take an excursion to Belfast to learn more about Northern politics and the peace process.
Housing is with Irish families where students take breakfast and dinners. Living in the political and cultural capital of Ireland allows for immersion in the daily life and intellectual currents of contemporary Irish society.
