Why I Chose St Patrick’s

Studying at St. Patrick's Pontifical university has been nothing short of amazing. From my very first day I felt right at home, the small class sizes allowed me to make lifelong friendships. There's a real sense of community here everyone knows each other and then the lecturers take genuine interest in how you're doing academically and in your overall growth.

Córa Somers - BATh 2nd Year Student, Theology and History

My time at St Patrick's Pontifical University has been, to say the very least, an engaging one. The welcoming atmosphere and kindness of the staff - who always take a serious interest in your advancement - to say nothing of the students, all contribute to an astounding warmth and unique academic experience you won't find anywhere else.

Brandon Lowe - Student Ambassador, BATh

The opportunity to study both Theology and Gaeilge allows me to combine two areas that I love and am passionate about. I always feel welcome on campus by fellow students and lecturers and there’s always someone to sit and have tea in Pugin Hall with too!

Rachel Harries, Theology & Gaeilge student

The MTh expanded my learning by exploring the Bible from new perspectives. It showed me how relevant theology is to all aspects of life.

Arnold Hensman MTh Graduate

Your theology studies have the potential to shape both who you are and what you do, just as it did with me.
