This course is typically suited for people with the following Career Interests. If these interests do not describe you, this course may prepare you for work you may not find satisfying.

Social

The Social person's interests focus on interacting with the people in their environment. In all cases, the Social person enjoys the personal contact with other people in preference to the impersonal dealings with things, data and ideas found in other groups.

Many will seek out positions where there is direct contact with the public in some advisory role, whether a receptionist or a counsellor. Social people are motivated by an interest in different types of people and like diversity in their work environments. Many are drawn towards careers in the caring professions and social welfare area, whilst others prefer teaching and other 'informing' roles.

Students spend time in schools each year with extended placements in years Three and Four. 

This degree leads to a variety of careers as teachers, principals, and inspectors in primary schools and also affords opportunities to work in Government Departments, and other National Voluntary Organisations.

(On successful completion graduates can register as primary teachers with the Teaching Council of Ireland.)
