Your Study/ Life Balance
Before you apply for a postgraduate course, it is important to think about how you will balance your studies with the other demands of life. If you are considering working while undertaking your studies, you should inform your workplace and seek guidance on managing your work schedule to make space for your studies and take your academic workload into account. For one 10-ECTS module, students are expected to complete 200-250 hours of work including learning in the classroom, self-study and assessments. All of our courses allow you to pace your studies over the course of several years. It is important that you choose the right approach that fits with your life. Remember, if you have any questions about managing the academic workload associated with postgraduate study, get in touch and we will be happy to discuss these issues with you. Finally, Trinity offers a wide range of services to our postgraduate students, and we have listed a few that may be of help. We encourage all our students to make use of the supports that are available to them.
