The School of Law, UL, was delighted to welcome Professor Fernando Ballester of the Universidad de Alicante to be a visiting researcher for the academic year 2018-19.  Professor Ballester, an expert on Labour Law, reflects on his experience:

"I have nothing but good things to say about my sabbatical year at the University of Limerick, School of Law. One year on, I think back with nostalgia to the fantastic academic year that I spent there, on one of the most beautiful modern campuses I know and in a climate of true collegiality. I am most grateful to Prof. Shane Kilcommins (Head of School of Law), Dr. Kathryn O'Sullivan (Director of International Education) and Eddie Keane (expert in Labour Law), who welcomed me with open arms and encouraged my inclusion into the School from day one. I was able to develop my research with all material and human resources at my fingertips. For me and for my children, who accompanied me on this adventure, it was a rich and vital experience that we will never forget. A big thanks to all the staff, academic and non-academic, for making it so".
