Trinity College Dublin launches graduate entry BCL

Trinity College, Dublin is launching a new two-year graduate entry law programme (Bachelor of Civil Law) commencing in September 2027.

An accelerated law programme that recognises the prior learning, academic experience, and maturity of graduate-entry students, the core modules open pathways to legal practice in Ireland but the curriculum is also designed to support qualification in key foreign jurisdictions. The degree will also offer a selection of practice-focussed modules that target contemporary, transferable lawyering skills.

Applicants must hold a II-2 minimum, Level 8 Award (or equivalent). There is no specific subject requirement.

The course will cover all mandatory subjects required for entry to the Barrister-at-Law degree at the Honorable Society of King’s Inns and those reflected in the Law Society’s FE-1 examinations and targeted modules for the solicitors’ profession.

Applications open in November 2026 and close on 31 March 2027.

For those interested Trinity College School of Law is hosting an information session on Thursday 19 November at 6pm in the Arts Building.
