What is Human genetics? Human Genetics is the study of genes – or heredity – in humans. It also examines the effects of these genes on both individuals and societies. It has developed rapidly in the last decade as new technology has made it possible to study genes in much greater detail. Examples of remarkable advances in knowledge include: - The discovery of the molecular basis of many inherited disorders - The development of genetic and stem-cell-based therapies for inherited disorders - The ability to trace the evolution of mankind - The application of DNA finger-printing to forensic science Is this the right course for you? Human Genetics is a knowledge-driven, dynamic and exciting field. As most graduates of this programme go on to careers in research, you should be prepared to consider this route as one career option. What will you study? This course provides you with a strong base in the basic sciences of biology, chemistry and mathematics, as well as in the classical principles of genetics – molecular, population and quantitative genetics, bioinformatics and molecular evolution. Over the four-year period of your degree programme, the course will also demonstrate the importance of studies in model organisms, especially the mouse. Seminar and tutorial programmes, organised with staff from various disciplines, are an integral part of your studies, and encompass such subjects as the interactions between genetics and the social sciences, ethics, linguistics, philosophy and law, and the general relationship between genes, society and culture. FIRST AND SECOND (FRESHMAN) YEARS In the first and second years you will concentrate on the areas of biology, chemistry and mathematics, and will also be introduced to the principles of genetics in separate tutorials. In each of the first two years you will take some of the same courses as Science (TR071) students: Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics in the Junior Freshman year and Biology modules BY2201, 2203, 2204, 2205, 2208 and 2209, Chemistry and Mathematics in the Senior Freshman year. In addition you will have a weekly genetics tutorial with faculty from the Department. THIRD AND FOURTH (SOPHISTER) YEARS In the third and fourth years you will undertake specialised studies in areas such as: - Medical Genetics: includes the identification of genes causing various clinical disorders and the development of genetic and stem-cell therapies to treat them. - Neurogenetics: studies how genes control development and function of the nervous system and their influences on behaviour and psychiatric disease. - Molecular and Cell Biology: explores the control of gene expression and function of genes in various cellular processes, such as cell death, proliferation or differentiation. - Computer Programming: provides an essential skill for this field, where large amounts of data must be analysed, and one which is easily transferable to other careers. - Population Genetics and Human Evolution: deals with genetic variation in populations and the role of this variation in evolution, especially in humans. - Cancer Genetics and Mutation: studies the mechanisms of mutation and its role in cancer. Subjects are taught through a combination of lectures, tutorials and practical courses. In the Senior Sophister year, you will be able to specialise in areas of particular interest and will carry out an original research project in an area such as: Hereditary Blindness, Cell Death, Neural Development, Stem-Cell Biology, Human Evolution and Psychiatric Genetics. Specialist lecture courses include Cancer Genetics, Genetics of Vision, Behavioural Genetics and Human Evolutionary Genetics. Why study Human Genetics at Trinity? - Human Genetics is housed in the Smurfit Institute of Genetics, with state of the art research facilities. - Ireland was ranked number 1 in Europe in the 2010 national rankings for research in molecular genetics and genomics (source: Thomson Scientific Essential Science indicators), ahead of countries such as the UK and Germany. This ranking is based on the high numbers of citations received by research papers in genetics published from Ireland, primarily by scientists at the Smurfit Institute of Genetics – the only dedicated genetics research institute in Ireland. The institute has an outstanding reputation for producing high-quality research and holds two of Ireland’s three European Research Council Advanced Grants in biology – the most prestigious research awards in Europe. ASSESSMENT You will be assessed by a combination of continuous assessment and end-of-year examinations. Study abroad At the end of the third year, you may be able to spend the summer months working in a human genetics research laboratory. This is often in the USA, with some financial assistance provided. Careers Many Human Genetics graduates go on to study for a higher degree or to a career in research, whether in a university, research institute, or in industry. Opportunities exist in biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, agricultural organisations, medical or clinical diagnostic laboratories, forensics, public health and epidemiology programmes, and in teaching. Genetic counselling is a rapidly expanding field that might also interest you. Other graduates have gone into careers such as medicine, patent law or science journalism. Even if you choose a career not directly related to the scientific subject, the skills of critical thinking and problem solving provided by the Human Genetics degree will put you in high demand. Further information Specific Entry Requirements Graduate Profile Aoife Murray: Human Genetics I became interested in genetics in 5th year in school, after we covered the genetics section of the Leaving Cert biology course. It was easy to choose which college to apply to - Trinity is the only college in Ireland to offer a Human Genetics degree. In first and second year of the course we did a lot of general biology, as well as Chemistry and Maths. We also had a weekly genetics tutorial which was a chance to hear a little bit about the work that's going on in the genetics department and gave a small taste of the subjects we'd study in 3rd and 4th year. The last two years were focused completely on different areas of genetics, of which I was particularly interested in medical genetics and neurogenetics. A large part of 4th year was spent working on an individual research project in one of the labs in the genetics department. I spent the summer after 3rd year working in a lab in California which was a fantastic experience and helped me decide that after college I definitely wanted to pursue a career in research. Next year I'm going to Cambridge to start a PhD in the Cambridge Institute for Medical Research. This course is funded by the Irish government under the National Development Plan 2007-2013 and aided by the European Social Fund (ESF) under the Human Capital Investment Operational Programme 2007-2013.

Early Irish component Early Irish can be studied either in combination with one other subject as part of a two-subject moderatorship (TSM) programme or in the single honour Early and Modern Irish programme (TR022). What is Early Irish? Early Irish is the language in use in Ireland from the earliest period for which there are records up to the year 1200. The course covers the language and literature from the emergence of writing at the arrival of Christianity in Ireland to the production of the great saga manuscripts of the twelfth century. Is this the right course for you? If you are interested in acquiring a reading knowledge of Medieval Irish, in which the great saga literature of our manuscripts was written, this is the course for you. Why study Early Irish at Trinity? The Irish department at Trinity has a long history of excellence in the study of Early Irish and continues to engage in research at the highest level. The staff are recognised as experts in their respective fields and many former students are now teaching in Irish universities. You will enjoy small class sizes and a friendly atmosphere which past students have always said was a hallmark of the Trinity Irish Department experience. You may also avail of the option to study Medieval and Modern Welsh in Wales in your third year. Trinity is home to the twelfth-century Book of Leinster, one of the most important manuscripts of Irish literature and learning to have survived from the Medieval period. What will you study? The Early Irish course, which is taught through the medium of English, covers the history of the Irish language from its first appearance on the Ogam inscriptions at the dawn of the Christian era in the fifth century, to the highly polished language of the sagas and law texts preserved in the medieval manuscript collections held in the libraries of Trinity, the Royal Irish Academy and the National Library, all within a five-minute walk of Trinity. You will investigate the Celtic and Indo-European origins of Irish. You will come to know the great characters of Early Irish literature, including the tragic Deirdre, the doomed Conaire, the irresistible but irritable Cú Chulainn, the hopelessly infatuated Muirchertach and many more. You will explore the Pagan and/or Christian character of the literature as well as topics such as kingship, the heroic biography and the sovereignty goddess. FIRST AND SECOND (FRESHMAN) YEARS In the first two years you will study the basics of Old Irish. At this stage you will read most literature in translation but you will be introduced to the original texts gradually and you will see how the language emerged and developed through the early Christian period. THIRD AND FOURTH (SOPHISTER) YEARS In third and fourth year the horizons are expanded; your study of the history of the language will take you back to its Celtic origins and forward to the dawn of Modern Irish. At this stage you will be reading prose and poetry as well as law and history in the original language, and a special course in palaeography will teach you how to read the manuscripts themselves. Third year students may opt to spend a term in Aberystwyth learning Medieval and Modern Welsh. ASSESSMENT Assessment is by exercises and essays submitted during the year as well as end-of-year examinations. In the final year you will also research and write a dissertation. Careers Some students of Early Irish pursue independent research in the subject with a view to teaching at third-level. Most follow a career in teaching or journalism, especially Irish-language related media. Library archiving, the public service, marketing, business, interpreting and translation all figure in the profiles of past students.An Nua-Ghaeilge Is féidir Nua-Ghaeilge a dhéanamh i dteannta le hábhar eile sa Mhodhnóireacht Dhá Ábhar (TR001) nó i dteannta le Luath-Ghaeilge sa Mhodhnóireacht aon-onóra (EMI TR022). Sa dá chóras seo déantar staidéar ar an dá ábhar ar feadh trí bliana agus roghnaítear ceann amháin den dá ábhar don cheathrú bliain. Bronntar céim onóra sa dá ábhar. Cad is brí le Nua-Ghaeilge?’ Tugtar ‘Nua-Ghaeilge’ ar an teanga ón mbliain 1200 go dtí an lá atá inniu ann. Sa chúrsa seo léitear litríocht ó gach cuid den tréimhse agus déantar staidéar ar fhorás na teanga lena linn. Déantar staidéar speisialta freisin ar Ghaeilge an lae inniu agus ar Ghaeilge na hAlban. An é seo an cúrsa duitse? An mbaineann tú taitneamh as Gaeilge a labhairt? An maith leat an Ghaeilge a scríobh is a léamh? An bhfuil tú ag iarraidh go mbeidh an ghaeilge timpeall ort gach lá? Más mian leat barr feabhais a chur ar do chumas sna réimsí sin, seo an cúrsa duitse. Cén fath a roghnófá an Nua-Ghaeilge i gColáiste na Tríonóide? Tá cáil ar fhoireann Roinn na Gaeilge sna goirt ina bhfuil siad ag obair mar scoláirí agus iad ag foilsiú leo go rialta. Chomh maith leis sin, tá an-cháil ar an Roinn as a bheith cairdiúil, rud a thaitníonn go mór lenár gcuid mac léinn. Bíonn líon na mac léinn beag go leor le go mbíonn sé éasca do na mic léinn aithne a chur ar a chéile. Tá Cumann Gaelach na mac léinn an-ghníomhach ar fad; tá scéim chónaithe lánGhaelach a bhfuil an-tóir uirthi sa Choláiste. San iomlán, is geall le mionGhaelacht i lár na príomhchathrach sinn. Cad a bheidh á fhoghlaim agat? Is trí mheán na Gaeilge a mhúinfear do chúrsa. Foghlaimeoidh tú faoi gach gné den Nua-Ghaeilge: ón bhFiannaíocht sa 13ú haois go Máirtín Ó Cadhain agus Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill sa lá atá inniu ann. Cuirfidh tú go mór le do chumas i labhairt agus scríobh na Gaeilge, agus déanfaidh tú staidéar foirmiúil ar cheartúsáid na teanga. Beidh deis agat freastal ar léachtaí faoi: scéalaíocht na seanré, stair shóisialta na teanga, an béaloideas, filíocht na scol, an Fhiannaíocht agus an nualitríocht ar fad, .i. gearrscéalta, drámaíocht, úrscéalta, dírbheathaisnéisí agus filíocht. Caithfidh tú dhá mhí sa Ghaeltacht in Éirinn mar chuid de do chúrsa. Sainghné speisialta de chúrsa na Nua-Ghaeilge i gColáiste na Tríonóide ná gur anseo amháin a bheidh seans agat trí bliana a chaitheamh le Gaeilge na hAlban (a’ Ghàidhlig). Beidh seans agat, más mian leat, tréimhse a chaitheamh i nGaeltacht na hAlban freisin. AN CHÉAD BHLIAIN AGUS AN DARA BLIAIN Sa chéad bhliain agus sa dara bliain, díríonn an cúrsa ar na hábhair seo a leanas: scileanna i labhairt agus scríobh na teanga, an cheapadóireacht, an t-aistriúchán, stair shóisialta na Gaeilge, an Ghaeilge Chlasaiceach, an nualitríocht, Gaeilge na hAlban. AN TRÍÚ BLIAIN AGUS AN CEATHRÚ BLIAIN Sa tríú bliain agus sa cheathrú bliain, díríonn an cúrsa ar na hábhair seo a leanas: ardscileanna teanga (labhartha agus scríofa), an cheapadóireacht agus an t-aistriúchán ag leibhéal níos airde, agus Gaeilge na hAlban. Foghlaimeoidh tú conas lámhscríbhinní a léamh (cúrsa sa phailéagrafaíocht) agus léirmheastóireacht chriticiúil a dhéanamh ar scéalaíocht na seanré. Ina theannta sin, déanfaidh tú rogha cúrsaí sa Nua-Ghaeilge Mhoch, sa litríocht bhéil, i nualitríocht na Gaeilge agus/nó nualitríocht Ghaeilge na hAlban. MEASÚNÚ Déanann gach mac léinn cleachtaí scríofa gach seachtain mar chuid den mheasúnú leanúnach; bíonn aistí le scríobh go tráthrialta, agus béaltriail agus scrúduithe scríofa ag deireadh na bliana. Sa cheathrú bliain, déanann mic léinn taighde neamhspleách agus scríobhann siad miontráchtas. Postanna Tá réimse an-leathan gairmeacha ag daoine a rinne Nua-Ghaeilge anseo. Ina measc tá cuid mhaith múinteoirí, iriseoirí (sna meáin Ghaeilge go háirithe) agus daoine le postanna eile sna meáin – teilifís, ceol, beochan, raidió agus an t-idirlíon. Tá borradh tagtha ar líon na ndaoine a fhaigheann postanna mar ateangairí agus aistritheoirí, cuid acu siúd thar sáile. Tá léachtóirí ollscoile agus leabharlannaithe againn chomh maith, agus iarmhic léinn eile ag obair sa tseirbhís phoiblí, le gnó agus le margaíocht.

Specific Entry Requirements Student Profile Christina Cleary When I first embarked upon third level education I found the whole thing quite daunting, yet within a few weeks of lectures in Early Irish I was completely at ease. The staff are among the most learned academics in the field and are prepared to support and help each individual student to progress to their full potential. Among the many boons of being part of Roinn na Gaeilge is that the student is presented with multi-dimensional facilities, networks and access to the major works housed in Trinity's Manuscript Department, in the Royal Irish Academy and in the National Library. Próifíl ar chéimí le Nua-Ghaeilge Marie Ní Bhraonáin (Nua-Ghaeilge, Drámaíocht) Is mise Marie. Is as Gaillimh mé. Tháinig mé go Coláiste na Tríonóide chun staidéar a dhéanamh ar na nGaeilge agus ar an Drámaíocht. Bhí suim agam i gcónaí teacht anseo tar éis na hArdteiste. Labhraím Gaeilge le mo mhuintir féin agus, i ndáiríre, is Gaeltacht bheag atá lonnaithe anseo i Roinn na Gaeilge. Táim thar a bheith sásta gur éirigh liom cúrsa Gaeilge a dhéanamh anseo. Ní fhéadfainn smaoineamh ar fhoireann teagaisc níos díograisí nó níos deise ná foireann Roinn na Gaeilge. Cothaíonn said grá ionainn go léir don Ghaeilge agus tugtar spreagadh dúinn chun seoid ár n-oidhreachta a chaomhnú agus a fhorbairt chuile lá.
