Course Description
Pre-University Liberal Arts
This one-year course, similar to our other arts programme, aims to prepare students for entrance into Arts degrees in Irish universities and colleges, as well as preparing students to work in a European environment both in Ireland and
abroad. The Liberal Arts option attributes more of a focus on The Arts, English Literature and European languages.
Students will have the option of taking a language, Irish or Spanish, along with European Studies or can focus on a
more English Literature based course, which will lead to a general studies option.
The following modules will be offered subject to availability or demand and are subject to change:
• Research and Study Skills
• History
• Communications
• Work Experience
• English Literature
• Literary Visual and Performing Arts
• Creative Writing
• Word Processing
