The Trinity College Dublin and Columbia University Dual BA Program offers students an international educational experience —a program spanning two continents and cosmopolitan cities. The Program allows students to enhance their global outlook and develop their language skills and communication abilities to the highest possible level.
Wherever your passions lie, in science, the humanities, or social sciences, the Dual BA Program offers you the opportunity to engage in the study of your chosen fields with world-renowned faculty on both sides of the Atlantic and to immerse yourself in two distinct academic, social, and cultural environments.
Trinity College Dublin and Columbia University Dual BA Program
Inaugurated in November 2017, the Dual BA Program between Trinity College Dublin and Columbia University builds upon the success of two preexisting international dual degree programs within the School of General Studies, and a long-standing exchange program partnership between both universities. The second transatlantic undergraduate program at Columbia University, the Dual BA Program builds upon previous partnerships in both Europe and Asia and serves as a model for future cooperative efforts between Columbia and international universities.
The Dual BA Program offers students an international educational experience with a program spanning two continents and cosmopolitan cities. The Program allows students to enhance their global outlook and develop their language skills and communication abilities to a high level. Students spend the first two years studying in Dublin’s city center and the final two years in the heart of New York City.

Students continue their chosen program of study in one of the approved Columbia majors, while also completing Columbia’s core curriculum.

By offering two distinct learning environments, the Dual BA Program seeks to present a variety of experiences that allow students to challenge themselves and develop a richly textured understanding of an increasingly globalized world. Dual BA students complete the undergraduate curricula of both Trinity and Columbia as part of a uniquely diverse group of fellow students.
