Trinity College which is officially The Provost, Fellows, Foundation Scholars, and the other members of the Board, of the College of the Holy and Undivided Trinity of Queen Elizabeth near Dublin, is the only constituent college of the University of Dublin, a research university in Dublin, Ireland.

Queen Elizabeth, I established the college in 1592 as the mother of a university that was modeled after the educational universities of Oxford and Cambridge, but unlike these associated institutions, only one college was ever founded; as such, the designations Trinity College, and University of Dublin are usually synonymous for practical purposes.

However, Trinity College Dublin is a sister college to St John’s College, Cambridge and Oriel College, Oxford, and by integration, a graduate of Dublin, Oxford, or Cambridge can be accorded the equivalent degree at either of the other two without further examination.

The university is legally integrated by the Provost, Fellows, Foundation Scholars, and other members of the Board, as defined by its founding charter. Trinity College is one of the seven olden universities of Britain and Ireland, as well as Ireland’s oldest surviving university.

Trinity College’s main campus, in the heart of Dublin, has been ranked among the most historic in the world- and is the setting for several novels, films, and urban legends. Broadly considered one of Europe’s elite universities, Trinity College is Ireland’s most reputable university, in part due to its historical importance.

Academically, Trinity College is divided into three faculties which consist of 23 schools, offering degree and diploma courses at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Its admission procedure is based solely on academic merit, with the college being particularly approved in law, literature, and humanities.

The college also executes extensive research in nanotechnology, information technology, immunology, mathematics, engineering, psychology, politics, and English. Trinity College was originally founded outside Dublin’s city walls in the buildings of the prohibited Catholic Augustinian Priory of All Hallows.

Trinity College was established in part to integrate the rule of the Tudor monarchy in Ireland, and as a result, was the university of the Protestant Ascendancy for much of its history. Moreover, while Catholics were admitted from 1793, certain restrictions on membership of the college remained, as professorships, fellowships, and scholarships were reserved for Protestants.

The college has educated most of Ireland’s most successful poets, playwrights, and authors, including Oscar Wilde, Jonathan Swift, Bram Stoker, Percy French, William Trevor, Sally Rooney, Oliver Goldsmith, Thomas Moore, William Congreve, Nobel Laureates Samuel Beckett, Ernest Walton, Mairead Maguire,e, and William Cecil Campbell, former Presidents of Ireland Mary McAleese, Douglas Hyde, Éamon de Valera, and Mary Robinson, philosophers George Berkeley and Edmund Burke, politicians David Norris and John Redmond, as well as mathematicians George Salmon, Robert Mallet, and William Rowan Hamilton.

Trinity College is rated 101st in the world by the QS World University Rankings and 146th in the world by Times Higher Education World University Rankings in 2022, rating it first in Ireland in both rankings.
