Course Summary
Course Category: CAO (Higher Education - HET)
Film Studies
While you will learn about practical issues involved in film production, including how to write a script and how to produce short videos, the course is geared toward critical engagement with film and digital media.
History
The History programme combines the strength of a broad-based programme in the first two years, introducing all students to the sheer diversity of historical studies, with the freedom to explore areas of particular interest to individual students in the final two years. The first and second years provide a range of modules covering medieval and modern periods, including Irish, European, and American history, as well as some modules exploring the skills and methods which historians use, and the kinds of debates in which historians engage.
