Dublin City University offers a flexible gateway to humanities education through its Bachelor of Arts Single Module (BASM) programme. This unique study option is specifically designed for those seeking to engage with university-level content without the commitment of a full-time, campus-based degree. Whether you are a post-primary teacher looking to upskill for Teaching Council registration in History or English, a professional pursuing continuing development, or an individual studying purely for personal enrichment, this programme provides a tailored academic experience.

Flexible Humanities Engagement

The programme stands out for its delivery through online distance learning, allowing students to balance rigorous intellectual pursuit with existing professional or personal responsibilities. You have the freedom to select from a suite of modules in History, Literature, and Philosophy, with the option to treat them as standalone units or accumulate credits toward a formal Diploma or Degree in Humanities. This modular approach empowers learners to build their own academic path at a pace that suits their individual circumstances.
