Griffith College, Irelands largest independent third-level institution, offers a comprehensive range of opportunities at postgraduate level. Recognising that studying at this level is very demanding, the college works hard to ensure all available supports are in place and to accommodate as much as possible students who make the decision to complete a qualification. The flexible options prospective students can avail of at Griffith College begin at application stage. The college will accept applications right up to the end of September 2010, by which time other postgraduate courses have well and truly closed. Moreover, many courses have February and September start dates as well as part-time and full-time alternatives. Courses commencing at Griffith College in February include the MA in Journalism, the MSc in Computing, the MSc in Applied Digital Media, the LLM in International Law and the MSc in International Business Management. The School of Professional Accountancy is also preparing for February start dates for its ACCA programmes and late applications are being received by the Law School for its ILEX approved courses in Professional Legal Studies. The college places a heavy emphasis on professional career development and maintains strong links with professional bodies such as ILEX and ACCA, to the benefit of students. ICM- approved courses include short diploma courses in Marketing and Human Resource Management. If you are looking for something different in 2010 that provides a unique combination of travel, academic challenge and overseas work experience, why not consider Griffith Colleges Tripartite MSc, which offers an outstanding opportunity to study a masters programme in three European cities and receive two masters degrees in International Business. The first semester of the course takes place in Berlin, after which students move to Dublin to complete their second semester at Griffith College, while the third semester is completed in Paris. Following this, students return to their location of choice from the three colleges to complete a dissertation and an internship. Griffith College has a huge array of postgraduate options to choose from at its Dublin, Cork and Limerick campuses and, as an independent provider, it offers smaller classes and expert lecturing teams with extensive industry experience.
