From the Program Coordinator, Thomas Ihde



The Minor in Irish Studies provides students with an interdisciplinary approach to the culture, history, language, and literature of Ireland and the diaspora. The minor will serve students who are majoring in fields where global and cross-cultural awareness are especially valuable, such as business, political science, and health services; in such humanities-based fields as art, literature, history, and music; and in related multimedia fields.
