Within this course I studied English, History, Theology, Philosophy, Ethic, Religion, Conflict and Peace, Critical Thinking, to name a few. These subjects opened my eyes to the world beyond my own and I started to become aware of the different multi-cultural societies, world religions and a way of thinking outside the box. This helped me obtain the job I have today. Plus, Humanities looks excellent on your CV!” Sophie Dunne, Humanities Graduate “The variety of modules studied is excellent and the passion of the lecturers is undeniable which makes you more excited to learn about that module.” Amanda Pitcairn, English & History Graduate Visit our website to learn more about what we have to offer, www.CarlowCollege.ie 23
