Distinctive Features of a Trinity Education

At Trinity you will have the opportunity to develop a strong expertise in your chosen subject areas, but we also encourage you to broaden your experience and perspective beyond your core subjects. Students have opportunities to take electives, open modules, study abroad, do a capstone project and participate in a wide range of extracurricular activities and employability awards.

The distinctive features of a Trinity Education help our students to develop the four Trinity Graduate Attributes: to think independently; to communicate effectively; to develop continuously; and to act responsibly.
