DC009 Arts: Joint Honours (Humanities)

At registration, you can choose from a range of Arts subjects for a degree with multifaceted perspectives. You’ll examine areas central to contemporary society, including tradition, culture, world religions, theology, law, politics, communication, human-environment relations, and human behaviour.

Subject options available on DC009

Choose TWO subjects from the following list of subjects at registration:

English
Gaeilge
Human Development OR Philosophy*
History OR Music*
Geography OR World Religions and Theology*

So, for example, you can study History and World Religions together but you wouldn’t be able to study History and Music together.

You’ll have the option to take a year abroad, extending your degree to four years and graduating with a Bachelor of Arts (Joint Honours) International. You can opt to apply for a year-long INTRA work placement in Year Three. This will give you a unique opportunity to enhance your CV, increase your employability and experience the relevance of your study in the real world.
