The 2026 Ireland program will take place from, May 11 - 15 in Lafayette and May 25 - June 10, 2026, in Ireland.
About the Program
The University of Louisiana at Lafayette Study Abroad in Ireland is a three-week program that offers you a chance to study and earn six credit hours in some of the friendliest, fun, and fetching locations in the Western world. Ireland is a land of contrasts — a tiny island nation that threw off the yoke of the mightiest empire in the world, and reclaimed their heritage, their language, and their identity.
Guided strolls through neighborhoods, visits to local markets and grocers, and navigating public transit in rural, cross-country, and urban settings bring students face-to-face with a small country with a giant heart and an even larger history and culture.
You’ll discover a land of saints and sinners; poets and farmers; and rock stars, high-tech entrepreneurs, druids, fairies, and holy wells. Or, just come for the travel learning and the craic!*
