YOUR CAREER WITH AN ARTS DEGREE “I constantly draw upon knowledge and skills attained during my undergraduate courses in Geography and English.” Nicholas O’Riordan PhD FILM STUDIES CANDIDATE/FILMMAKER I’ve always been in love with the arts, with my teenage years spent engaging in theatre, music and film. However, I wanted to ground this practical experience in something more. Choosing Arts in UCC naturally allowed me to focus on areas that interested me, while also teaching me about the cultures and societies that created them. Choosing to focus much of my studies around film, my academic interests naturally led me toward an MA in Film Studies, and then on to my current studies as a PhD candidate in Film Studies. With my PhD research related directly to film, I constantly draw upon knowledge and skills attained during my undergraduate courses in Geography and English. I find that my years in UCC have allowed me to explore this rich academic field, whilst also continuing my practical endeavours, with my college work constantly informing my filmmaking.

YOUR CAREER WITH AN ARTS DEGREE “I have been involved in many record breaking auctions, the last one being where a Van Gogh painting was sold for 60 million dollars. All this has been facilitated by my time studying in UCC.” Nicola Doody CLIENT SERVICES EXECUTIVE, SOTHEBY’S AUCTION HOUSE, NEW YORK As far back as I can remember I always wanted to study history of art and dreamed of working with art on some level. On completing my Leaving Cert, I chose to study Archaeology and History of Art in UCC and then went on to major in History of Art. I adored the course content and the organised trips away weren’t too bad either! I then went on to do a Masters in Management and Marketing in UCC, which also included a marketing internship in Ballymaloe. I currently live in New York City on a graduate visa working for Sotheby’s Auction House. In my current position I work in the client services department and deal with clients on a daily basis buying and selling art. It is an amazing place to work and it’s like working in a living, breathing museum. I have been involved in many record breaking auctions, the last one being where a Van Gogh painting was sold for 60 million dollars. All this has been facilitated by my time studying in UCC.
