Here are some ideas for Possible Research Topics. They might provide some inspiration! I will add to the list as I think of more.Local history, family history and fringe topics are all acceptable as the History syllabus encourages the student to use the full range of historical skills. Here are some examples:
-The Lebensborn Programme in Nazi Germany
-The GAA in Co Cavan — the glory years of the 1940s
-The Diaries of an Irishman in the RAF
-Led Zeppelin's contribution to rock music
-The Sheehy Skeffingtons and their involvement in 1916
-Ernie O’ Malley, Dan Breen etc
- Battle of the bulge
-Battle for berlin
-Che Guevara
-Wall street crash
-Vietnam war(but be specific like the Chu Chi tunnels)
-History of the GAA
-Victor Jara
-Mayo and 1798
-Ireland’s Nazis
-Archbishop Machale
-W.B. Yeats, Maud Gonne and MacBride-the love triangle
- The I.R.A. grave in Leigue cemetery
- The Mother and Child Scheme
- The Hillsborough disaster
-Lord Haw Haw
-Violet Gibson
-Dr Kathleen Lynn
-Haile Selassie
are these topics that have been previously been done?
