We are delighted to introduce you to our new B.A. (Hons) in Philosophy, Politics & Sociology, which will commence in September 2022. This degree is a fantastic choice for those who are interested in pursuing a career in this area, and it will give them the opportunity to learn about our contemporary society specifically in relation to political, philosophical, and social issues.
Students may also be interested in our existing degree, B.A. (Hons) in Social, Political and Community Studies, if they are passionate about making a change in the communities in which they live. This degree will encourage students to challenge issues that face us in contemporary Irish society and will encourage them to take an active role in society. You can learn more about each of these degrees by watching back our Programme Talks here which took place on Tuesday the 18th last. During March and April 2019, Carlow College, St. Patrick’s are holding a series of workshops which have been developed in conjunction with our Degree in Social, Political and Community Studies. The workshops which are aimed at 4th, 5th and 6th year students and will engage them in sociological and political issues. They will explore human rights, equality and social change with the impact of social media and our ‘always on’ culture.
On completion students will have enhanced social awareness along with enhanced practical skills. The workshops will be facilitated by Stephanie Hanlon. Stephanie is a Lecturer on our Social, Political and Community Studies degree and specialises in Direct Provision in Ireland, Immigration Policy, Social Policy, Citizenship and Immigration. She has worked with refugees and asylum seekers for 10 years, was the Irish and European Ambassador for the No Hate Speech Movement and has worked with the Gender Quality Unit in the Council of Europe.
