Welcome to the Home Page for Irish and Irish Immigration Studies at SIUC. As a teaching and research institution, Southern Illinois University at Carbondale has many resources that allow for focused, multidisciplinary study of Ireland and the world-wide dispersal of Irish immigrants at both the undergraduate and graduate level. Irish and Irish Immigration Studies draws on resources from many fields across campus, including English, History, Theater, Sociology, Speech Communication, Psychology, and Library Affairs, to develop courses and individual programs of study in areas that cross disciplinary boundaries and combine fields while sharing the significant resources for research available at SIUC.
