Celtic Studies allows students to blend language learning with diverse courses exploring both ancient and contemporary Celtic cultures across Britain and Ireland. You'll engage with the rich traditions of Celtic-speaking communities alongside leading scholars while mastering one of the British Isles' Celtic languages.
The University maintains vibrant exchange programs with Trinity College Dublin and institutions in North America and Australia that specialize in Celtic studies. Alumni have pursued diverse paths including education at all levels, museum curation, heritage conservation, publishing, music, business ventures, as well as advanced academic research.
Students who completed Celtic Civilisation in their initial years can opt to learn Scottish Gaelic or pair medieval Celtic history with ancient Celtic language studies. The curriculum offers specialized courses covering various cultural and literary aspects, from early Irish and Scottish belief systems to Gaelic folklore, ancient texts, Welsh literature, and Celtic artistry. Advanced students can explore focused historical topics including medieval Ireland, the Northern Britons, and Pictish civilization through dedicated honors courses. The program culminates with an independent research project, enabling students to investigate a personally chosen subject while honing their autonomous research skills.
