Arranging for letters of recommendation
You must make prior arrangements with two referees to write letters of recommendation on your behalf. These should be academic references, or if you do not have recent academic experience, please supply professional references. Personal character references are not appropriate.
In your application, provide the names and contact details (preferably emails) of these two referees, and the department will contact them on your behalf to request letters. You may alternatively ask your referees to send letters directly to mary.galvin@mu.ie. Letters should be signed and sent from the referee’s email address. They can also be sent by post to the department at the address below.
