YOUR CAREER WITH<br />

AN ARTS DEGREE<br />

A phrase I irst heard<br />

during my freshers<br />

week has stayed with<br />

me throughout my<br />

career, “Everyone else<br />

is trained but Arts<br />

students are educated.”<br />

Cian Moriarty<br />

BA HONS, MA, SOLICITOR<br />

My path to Arts was typical. I left school at 17 unsure what<br />

I would do with my life. I knew however that I was curious<br />

about everything and I wanted to think for myself. The<br />

choice of topics within the Arts programme was astounding.<br />

I selected topics based solely on my own interests. In second<br />

year these topics split into multiple modules and again I<br />

allowed my passions to guide my choice. The nature of the<br />

Arts programme means that no two graduates are the same.<br />

Their accumulated knowledge is unique and personalised<br />

while still buttressed by the essential foundations of critical<br />

thinking, logic and argument. I qualiied as a solicitor after<br />

graduating and I can say with certainty that I am the only<br />

solicitor in Ireland with my speciic academic background.<br />

I feel this gives me an edge in every facet of my job from<br />

problem-solving and questioning to comprehending<br />

complex scenarios quickly. A phrase I irst heard during my<br />

freshers week has stayed with me throughout my career,<br />

“Everyone else is trained but Arts students are educated”.<br />

If you learn to think you can succeed anywhere.<br />
