Senior Sophister Year


The scope for developing specialist interests is extended in the fourth year.

This is done firstly through advanced options, linking undergraduate study to the research expertise of staff, in classes where TCD students often work together with visiting students from Germany.

Secondly, students research and write a capstone project on a topic of their own choice, which enables them to develop a specialist interest in law, literature, linguistics or some other aspect of German Studies.
