BA (Hons) Arts - Celtic Civilisation

UCC was the first university to offer a course in Celtic Civilisation. The course provides a comprehensive overview of the origins, ideology, society and history of the medieval Celtic peoples, together with their interactions among themselves and their influence farther afield.

A particular focus on early medieval Ireland also finds expression in the close study of a wide range of early Irish tales, poems and other works. Extensive enrolment by mature and international students adds to the diversity of the learning experience.
