Take your Language
Skills to the Next Level
There are so many opportunities to
continue studying your languages at Third
Level. You can study a language at Major
or Minor Level or choose one as an Elective
on many courses nationwide.
To find out more about what languages are
available with different courses, check out
the Languages Connect Course Finder on
CareersPortal.ie. You can search by language,
by subject area or by location, etc.
Study Abroad
Many courses include an Erasmus year or term
of study or work abroad. This is an amazing
opportunity for growth – not only do you
get to travel and see a new country, but you
also get to meet lots of interesting people of
many different nationalities. It is also the best
way to improve your language skills. Being
immersed in another culture and way of life
gives you an understanding of the world
from a different perspective.
If you’d like to hear from lots of young
people about their experiences of studying
languages at third level check out the
Languages Connect YouTube Channel

Travel More
“When you speak to someone in
a language they understand, that
goes to their head. If you talk to
someone in their own language,
that goes to their heart.”
Nelson Mandela
Imagine being able to connect with
people in their own language. You
can connect better and build a sense
of trust and understanding on your
travels. There are so many possibilities
that open up for you when you have
foreign language skills.
