Digital Humanities opening new career paths for History and History of Art graduates
In recent years History and Art History graduates have found positions on digital projects. Many of these projects involve making public historical texts and images. Examples of Irish projects include: Long Room Hub, (Trinity College Dublin), Texts, Contexts, Cultures (NUI, Galway, Trinity College Dublin, University College Cork) and the Digital Humanities Observatory (DHO) (Royal Irish Academy). Many projects require graduates with postgraduate qualifications and experience, but you may have what the project needs. Find a project you are interested in and contact the project leader for more information or advice.
