Preparing the Next Generation and Immersing in Culture and Language

Our Young Adult programme offers students between 16 to 19 years old a unique opportunity to immerse themselves in a dynamic city campus environment.

Collaborative projects foster creativity, time management, and leadership skills.

The programme includes 10 hours of General English and 10 hours dedicated to next-generation topics such as inclusion and diversity, active citizenship and democratic participation, the green economy, digital media, and AI.

Each week includes two cultural activities, two activities focused on next-generation topics, and one evening social event. Saturdays are dedicated to full-day excursions to explore Ireland, ensuring a comprehensive and engaging learning experience.
