Adult education at the School of Histories and Humanities: Extramural courses are non-degree courses provided for a general audience and, apart from the language courses, do not have any course work or examination commitments. They are informative, entertaining and an essential part of everyone's life-long learning and education. UNDERSTANDING IRELAND: THE TRINITY SEMESTER START UP PROGRAMME: provides international students with the opportunity to undertake a full semester’s study at Ireland’s leading university. The SSP, which runs for three weeks, covers the first one-sixth of a student’s semester work commitment at Trinity (5ECTS), with the remainder being covered by the other undergraduate courses students chose to do during October-December. The three-week SSP is unique in Ireland, combining an interdisciplinary approach to undergraduate study with the highest academic and educational standards.
