James Gough - Graduate of the LLM Master of Laws

Tell us why you chose the LLM (Master in Laws) & MA in Ethics Corporate Responsibility masters’ degrees?

I had been attending the Honourable Society of King's Inns, taking Advanced Diploma Classes, when with fellow students, I decided to study for a Masters' degree, an MA. I studied and achieved the MA in Ethics Corporate Responsibility, at Dublin City University (DCU). 

I decided, following passing the MA, to study for an LLM, (Master in Laws). I enrolled and Covid-19 intervened, necessitating all classes and lectures be delivered per Zoom. I studied for the postgraduate courses to broaden and widen my educational ability. 

I passed the LLM, and happily graduated with an MA and an LLM, in a three-year period. I recommend studying at DCU. It was an enlightening experience for me, and one well worth undertaking.

What are the highlights of your postgraduate experience at DCU?

Meeting and sharing experiences with fellow classmates

How has this master's made a difference to you/your life?

It broadened my outlook and introduced me to others with similar interests.

My advice to incoming students...

Make friends with fellow students to highlight and broaden your experience while studying for an MA.
