Student Testimonials

  • Kenny Olaniy
    Law and Business
    Ireland

    I chose to study Law and Business at Trinity as I was very interested in the course and I knew that Trinity was one of the best colleges in the world. The lecturers on my course were great and really engaging but be ready to do a lot of independent work. The social scene at Trinity, particularly with clubs and societies, was so much fun. I got involved with a few different ones – going to events and eventually running the events. I’ve made some of the best friends by meeting different people from different backgrounds at college.

  • Kevin Murphy
    MFA Stage Design
    Ireland

    I chose to undertake the MFA in Stage Design in order to further my creative practice, to spend a full year working on my design abilities and to develop the skills necessary to be a successful lighting designer after the course. It was great to have an established professional there to see how you work, give you feedback, and to see how your development over the course of the programme. I also really enjoyed that the MFA in Stage Design is primarily project-based which makes the course very practical and allows you to work on your skills in real time.
