Medieval History
Ireland?s Minister for Arts, Heritage and Gaeltacht Affairs, Jimmy Deenihan, launched two new postgraduate Masters programmes, in ?Public History and Cultural Heritage? and ?Digital Humanities and Culture? at Trinity College Dublin earlier this week, which will add a new dynamic to the development of country?s cultural heritage.
The programmes have been developed under the umbrella of Trinity?s Creative Arts, Technologies and Culture initiative and are an outcome of the new partnership between the university and some of Ireland?s leading cultural institutions located in close proximity at the centre of Dublin. The National Library of Ireland, the National Museum of Ireland, the National Archives of Ireland, Dublin City Gallery Hugh Lane, Dublin City Public Library and Archive Services and the Chester Beatty Library among others will collaborate with Trinity in the development of these new programmes.
Students will pursue courses in Trinity in established research areas such as History, English, Languages and Cultural Studies, and Computer Science while undertaking internships in the cultural institutions and gaining practical experience of working in the cultural heritage industry.
