    Yes. There are.

    There's a full list on the departments website of the modules.

    No there is not.

    Unless you want to study Greek and Roman Civilisation.

    Ancient empires fall in the remit of Ancient History. UCD does not have an Ancient History department.

    Barbarianism and Christianity is a 1st year module that covered the Roman Empire.

    Actually on reading that the second time he doesn't seem to want Roman modules.

    My bad. Best bet is to stick to Greek and Roman and possibly Archeology maybe?

    The Barbarism and Christianity module you speak of, the one you and I did in first year no longer exists. If it did I would have mentioned it. They replaced it with a class called Rome to Renaissance, that is too broad and he would get nothing out of it.

    Hey now no need to get all perfect grammar on me. I know you're hurt that we wont have any more classes together but relax, it'll be ok :).

    Didn't know they got rid of the module though. Tis a pity, was fairly good.

    I'm still hurt over them getting rid of Edward James' 3rd year Sci Fi in America module this year :(
