University of Limerick: Limerick - Direct Enrollment & Exchange

The UL Study Abroad programme is open to international students who wish to spend a semester or year at UL earning academic credit that is recognized by their home institution. Incoming students on the Study Abroad programme are from the USA, Japan, Thailand, China, Korea, Australia and many European countries. The University of Limerick offers modules across 4 colleges, Arts, Humanities & Social Sciences, Business, Education & Health Sciences and Science & Engineering. PROGRAMME HIGHLIGHTS Ø Fully integrated environment: You will be integrated with Irish and other international students for classes, on-campus accommodation and clubs & societies. Ø Extensive choice of modules: You can choose modules from across all faculties to fulfil major, minor and/or general education requirements. Ø Two-week trial period: You have a two-week trial period on your initial module choice. This ensures that the modules you select are at an appropriate level and that you are comfortable with your choices. Ø Sport: You will be given complementary membership of the University Arena (sports centre). Ø Field trips and student events: The International Office organises a number of off campus activities each semester. These include a special Thanksgiving dinner in the Fall and organised trips to Dublin and West of Ireland tourist attractions. We also work with the International Society at UL to promote other trips and activities which are offered at discount prices to students. Ø Tailored Orientation Programme: We offer a specific Study Abroad Orientation each semester. The programme includes day-time and evening events and takes place prior to week 1. It is an ideal way to settle in, meet other students and familiarise yourself with the campus before lectures start! Ø Airport pick up: Students are collected from Shannon International Airport each semester on the Tues/Wed prior to orientation. Ø Excellent support services: We encourage you to keep in touch with the office while on campus. We offer information and advice on immigration, accommodation and culture. We also provide specific pre-examination and pre-departure meetings at the end of each semester.
