Program details

Overview

This one-year Certificate of Higher Education is a fast-paced immersion course for students who already speak Gaelic reasonably well and want to advance quickly. Students are surrounded by the language across the college community, and they are expected to use Gaelic in all situations on campus. Modules explore how Gaelic declined and was revived, including the political motivations behind the revival from the 1970s onwards. Literature forms a strand as well, with short stories, drama and poetry read closely and discussed with critical technique. Students can take the course as a standalone year, or as the first year of the BA Hons degree, depending on their current level of Gaelic. The course suits learners aiming for everyday fluency and academic confidence in Gaelic, with immersion as the constant thread across every activity.
