Ashley Stuart, Bachelor of Arts in History, and Political Science and International Relations
"With an Arts degree you’re not just learning in a classroom. I’ve had real-life work experience in another country, which has helped to shape the career I want to move into. It amazes me when I hear people say BA students don’t get jobs! I’m learning so many transferable skills, going out into the workforce and travelling as part of my degree. I think real-world experience is the best education tool you can get. Employers are looking for so much more than a piece of paper now. They want to hear about what you’ve done. I’ve learned so much by travelling and interning. It’s made me more open minded and helped me focus on what I’m truly passionate about."
