English Studies & Modern Language - Early Irish or French or German or Irish or Russian or Spanish

The study of English is concerned with the history and practices of writing in English and encompasses literary works spanning English, Anglo-Irish, American and postcolonial cultures. A modern language plus another subject allows you to combine an interest in languages with an entirely different academic discipline, and gives you intensive training in both.
