Global Gallery Studies

This programme gives you the chance to engage with various theoretical modules as well as practice-based modules including cutting-edge learning experiences with The Glucksman (UCC’s award-winning on-campus gallery), fieldwork in international galleries, and the opportunity to take a project-led internship with a prominent fine art gallery in Ireland or internationally.

Our programme has a genuine global emphasis that embraces global gallery culture beyond Europe and America and includes the United Arab Emirates and China.

In addition to being taught by established expert practitioners, we facilitate network opportunities both nationally and internationally, subsequently exposing our graduates to active employers and potential employment opportunities. Furthermore, responding to industry requirements, we collaborate with the Department of Digital Arts & Humanities who contribute to the delivery of the programme.
