Teaching during COVID-19
Since the start of this pandemic, protecting the
health and safety of our campus community has
been a priority for us. This has meant delivering
most of our teaching and support online while
ensuring that students continue to get the
best possible learning experience. Even before
Covid-19, there was already high growth and
adoption in education technology in Carlow
College, St. Patrick's, to enable this. Therefore,
the pivot to online learning enforced by the
pandemic was a successful move as the College
was well placed to engage quickly with the new
reality it faced during 2020 and 2021.
Looking forward, the College is committed to
providing face-to-face learning experiences and
engaging directly where possible with students.
Given our recent experience, however, we are
confident in our ability to adapt and to fully
utilise our virtual learning environments and
digital platforms, ensuring our students remain at
the centre of everything we do.

Graduate Profile
My experience at Carlow College was wonderful. It’s such a friendly and supportive
environment, and the staff (from teaching staff to librarians, admin and catering) are great!
One of the significant benefits of attending a smaller third level institution is that you never
feel anonymous or alone – everybody knows your name, including lecturers, and it makes the
college experience far less daunting than it might be at a bigger institution.
A degree in Humanities gives students who aren’t sure about their post-college plans great
scope to make those choices when they’re ready – several of my classmates have gone on to
teach at primary and secondary level, while others are historians or pursuing postgraduate
qualifications in religious studies or psychology. It provides a great breadth of learning.
I have just finished the 3rd year of my Ph.D. at TCD. I work as a Teaching Assistant in the
English department during term time, which provides me with great experience, as I create a
tutorial syllabus and work with groups of undergraduate students. I am also the recipient of
an Irish Research Council Postgraduate Scholarship. I have had several articles published in
Eva Burke academic journals, and in 2018 had a book chapter published. I have also had the opportunity
to take part in various conferences, both at home and abroad, and have been invited to talk
Ph.D. Candidate & about my research at public events and podcasts!

Graduate Profile
Humanities gave me a deep understanding of the world in which we live in. Within this course
I studied English, History, Theology, Philosophy, Ethics, Religion, Conflict and Peace and Critical
Thinking, just to name a few. These subjects opened my eyes to the world beyond my own and
I started to become aware of the different multicultural societies, world religions, and a way of
thinking outside the box. This helped me to obtain the job I have today. Plus, Humanities looks
excellent on your CV!
I enjoyed the enthusiasm of our lecturers. Each lecturer was an expert in their field and their
devotion to the subject kept us hungry for more knowledge. For example, I studied Philosophy
where some of the topics we discussed were so beyond anything I had ever learned before. In
some cases, my class and I would be on the edge of our seats listening to phenomenal ideas by
the world’s great Philosophers.
I now work as Cabin Crew for Emirates and I’m based in Dubai. My job requires me to be in
contact with people from all over the world. Everyday I practise safety and security. I deal with
Sophie Dunne situations that force me to think independently and critically and that is something I credit to
my degree in Humanities at Carlow College.

Graduate Profile
I loved Arts subjects in school, particularly History and English, but I wanted a Theology
element in my degree as well. I visited the campus before I completed my CAO. Everyone
was so friendly and welcoming. I got the chance to chat with students and lecturers. I
immediately got the sense that I wanted to study there and luckily for me Carlow College was
able to provide me with all three strands of study I was interested in within their Humanities
programme.
Carlow College is a magnificent educational environment steeped in history. Because it is
a smaller third level institution I got to know all my classmates and lecturers. I still chat with
a lot of them today. I am even in touch with the St. Ambrose students from America that
studied with us.
The support from lecturers was incredible. Third level is very different from secondary school.
You are encouraged to do more independent learning, research, analysis, and critical thinking.
Lecturers equip you with the knowledge and the confidence to do this.
Donnchadh
O’Mahony I enjoyed ALL of my four years in Carlow, from playing football and soccer for the college to
studying and researching really interesting topics for different subjects, to all the infamous
nights out in Carlow town.
Guidance Counsellor
and Podcast host My advice is to go and visit the campus, chat to people who are studying or have studied there.
Chat to lecturers on the course you are thinking of applying to. I have never met one person
who didn’t love their time studying there.
Currently I’m a secondary school Guidance Counsellor in Loreto College in Stephen’s Green.
I help to guide students in their research for life after secondary school and I also counsel
students who are struggling with some aspects of life. What I love about my job is that
everyday is so different. The fact that I get to help young people on a regular basis is very
rewarding too.
I started the @leavingcertguidance Instagram page to help students navigate their journeys
better. I also host the Leaving Cert Guidance Podcast for senior cycle students who are
considering life at a third level institution. The podcast helps keep them informed when making
their decision. Check it out!
PAG E 3 4P RO S P E C T U S 2022
Graduate Profile
I completed the B.A. (Honours) in Arts and Humanities with a double major in Psychology
and Philosophy in 2020. I choose this degree primarily for psychology and philosophy, and the
breadth and depth of module choices. Studying psychology gave me a new perspective on my
past, and empowered me with insights, not only of myself, but of others and of society.
I chose Carlow College, because I had heard that it had a higher proportion of mature students
than most other colleges and this appealed to me (in my thirties). Also, even though I was
pretty sure psychology would be my chosen field, I was keen and curious to know more about
other modules too. For example, I remember asking Dr Sarah Otten about the Feminism
modules after my mature student’s interview and being so impressed and intrigued!
Carlow College has character and charm. The college oozes with history and inside, you get a
real feeling of all the people who have walked its halls. The library is an environment conducive
to studying, with its stained-glass windows and high ceilings, it was one of my favourite spots.
Clare King As it is smaller than other colleges, there is an opportunity for more class interactions and
discussions with lecturers. These help you get to grips with new topics and cement learning
Currently studying and understanding. You learn to think critically and then, armed with these skills, gain an
M.Sc. in Psychology, assurance in what you know and a confidence in voicing your own opinions. The lecturers are
DCU there to help, to bring out the best in you, and they are experts in their fields, so use them!
Think big and think broad and don’t be afraid to cross knowledge across the different modules:
they are all interlinked, often what you learn in one can help your understanding in another.
(Also, stay organised! There are a lot of modules, so date and organise notes and folders, keep
a calendar of assignments due, and stay positive!)
I am currently completing a M.Sc. in Psychology in DCU, accredited by the Psychological
Society of Ireland (PSI) and undertaking a new qualitative research project that focuses on
people with Borderline Personality Disorder. As a researcher, you can advance psychology as a
science, gain further understanding of the human mind and behaviour, and improve treatment
approaches. The critical thinking skills I developed over the four years in Carlow College have
made me a better person, and still help me through assignments now, as I complete my M.Sc.
