American Studies explores the history, development and diversity of one of the most powerful countries on the planet. Modules will cover music, film, politics, literature and history, describing America’s phenomenal growth as a global superpower.
The first year of study introduces students to the core American culture and history, while the second year provides the flexibility to choose from various topics. In the third year, almost all universities will offer you an opportunity to spend a year in Canada or America before submitting your dissertation.
As an American Studies graduate, you can pursue careers in teaching, journalism, politics and research.
Entry requirements vary for each Irish university, but international students will need an IELTS score of 6.5 overall, no lower than 6.0 in each component, and an International Baccalaureate score of 32 points in addition to A-level requirements, including English or History.
