Pursuing a successful academic programme at Master’s level in an English-language university places considerable demands on the student. It is necessary to follow academic lectures, to be able to take notes, to form opinions and communicate these in contributions to debates and seminars.

Critical reading skills allied with the capability to analyse, synthesise and critique arguments or positions and to present or represent research or opinions in writing through essays and dissertations are also essential.

At this level of study, it is necessary for a student to be aware of the many conventions which apply to academic work. The Pre-Masters Foundation Programme at Atlantic Language Dublin and Galway is designed to enable students achieve success in their realm of study.
