International Justice and Human Rights Program:

The “Challenges of International Justice” 2014 Exploration Seminar in Ireland and The Hague:  Planned for Aug 24 to Sept 16, 2014, the five credit program is open for applications until the end of February. This will be the seventh year of a study abroad program popular with students who have a special interest in human rights, and those considering law school.


Co-sponsored by the Irish Centre for Human Rights in Galway, Ireland, eleven days will be spent at the Centre in Galway before making a four night stop in Dublin, a trip to Belfast, and then an eight day trip to The Hague. The program provides a firsthand study of the major international tribunals and an opportunity to interact with court and human rights professionals in an academic and social setting.
