Student Reading List

Sutherland School of Law, UCD

Many of our prospective first year students find themselves at home this summer with time on their hands. We asked colleagues to recommend some reading material for students who are considering coming to UCD to study Law.

SLIDE 3

This is not an essential reading list. It is an extracurricular summer reading list, and we have also included podcasts and movies which we think students will enjoy.

SLIDE 4

We think that anyone who wants to study law will find something here to interest them, whether they are interested in crime, social justice, history, politics, human rights, lawyers, immigration, gender, legal processes, law school, privacy, punishment or legal systems.

We are mindful that access to libraries and bookshops is currently very limited. We have included links to e-books where possible, and some are also available as audiobooks. Many of the movies are available on streaming services, and podcasts can be accessed online or using podcast apps.

Feel free to pick and choose items from this list which look interesting to you. If you do not read, watch or listen to anything on this list before coming to UCD, don’t worry. You will not ‘fall behind’.
