Postgraduate course content

Your Master of Celtic Studies is an interdisciplinary postgraduate degree. Celtic Studies concern the analysis of the culture, language and history of Celtic people. Thus, your curriculum contains elements of linguistics, history, cultural studies and sociology allowing for a most diverse student life.

There are many different aspects of Celtic ethno-linguistics, including the Irish, Scottish, Breton, Gaelic or Welsh languages. In order to be able to grasp these different cultures, you also deal with the corresponding literature displays. Moreover, you regard the Celtic cultures as a catalyst of Medieval developments, comparing Celtic literature sources to those in other languages, such as Latin.
