Higher Certificate Business with Law

Historically, the disciplines of business and law have been closely associated in both the public and private sector. In the global economy, businesses deal with more complex issues concerning government regulations and international trade policies. Equally the law has to contend with constantly evolving commercial organisations and business practices. With the expansions of the legal profession into areas of mergers, acquisitions and taxation, the skills of legal and business graduates have merged in many aspects.

This two-year Higher Certificate in Business with Law programme provides students with a basic undergraduate education in both disciplines. Modules include: the Irish legal system; legal research and communications; business applications; economics; quantitative techniques; Law of Tort; management accounting; principles of marketing and a choice of electives.
