EduCativPosted November 25, 2020SharePosted November 25, 2020 Founded in 1592, Trinity College Dublin is Ireland's university on the world stage, offering undergraduate and postgraduate programs across 24 schools and three faculties: arts, humanities, and social sciences engineering, maths and science and health sciences. Spread across 50 acres in Dublin city center. Trinity's 17,000-strong student body comes from all 32 counties and more than 120 countries, making it a cosmopolitan campus focusing on diversity, intellectual rigor, academic excellence, and research-led teaching. Home to Nobel prize-winners such as scientist Ernest Walton and writer Samuel Beckett, Trinity draws visitors from across the world to its historic campus each year, including the Book of Kells and Science Gallery, which captures the university's connection to both old and new. At Trinity College Dublin, the University of Dublin, we provide a liberal environment where independence of thought is highly valued, and all are encouraged to achieve their potential. We promote a diverse, interdisciplinary, inclusive environment that nurtures ground-breaking research, innovation, and creativity by engaging with global significance issues. Located in a beautiful campus in the heart of Dublin's city center, Trinity is Ireland's highest-ranked university and one of the world's top 100. It is home to 17,000 undergraduate and postgraduate students across all the major disciplines in the arts and humanities and business, law, engineering, science, and health sciences. Trinity's tradition of independent intellectual inquiry has produced some of the world's finest, most original minds, including the writer's Oscar Wilde and Samuel Beckett (Nobel laureate), the scientists William Rowan Hamilton and Ernest Walton (Nobel laureate), the political thinker Edmund Burke, and the former President of Ireland and UNHCR Mary Robinson. Today, this tradition finds expression in a campus culture of scholarship, innovation, creativity, entrepreneurship, and dedication to societal reform. Our city-center campus has been the beating heart of Dublin and Ireland for well over four centuries. I first came here as an engineering student in the early 1980s, and I can still recognize my youth's well-loved campus. However, it has also been transformed into a global, interdisciplinary 21st-century university. Trinity researches at the cutting edge in exciting new fields like nanoscience, immunology, creative technologies, digital humanities, and all the traditional disciplines. We welcome students from over 120 countries, and we drive innovation and entrepreneurship in both research and education. Trinity produces a fifth of all spin-out companies in Ireland, and we are Europe's number 1 university for educating entrepreneurs. There is so much activity ongoing across the university – with research projects, access programs, public lectures, student clubs & societies, plays, readings, workshops, exhibitions, outreach… We have done our best to capture the full myriad of activities on this website. I hope you will enjoy exploring these pages to learn more about this great university.View full universityQuoteLink to commentShare on other sitesMore sharing options...
