This report is a quantitatively-based but ultimately purely descriptive study of foreign language modules designed to teach Irish students French, German, Italian, or Spanish in preparation for study, travel, and/or work experience abroad in order to enhance their academic qualifications, vocational prospects, and potential for future mobility. It makes no judgments about the overall success or effectiveness of the language modules, but merely presents the data that has been gathered on such attributes as the number of students enrolled and the levels of various languages which they achieve.
