Name of Student:<\/strong> Niamh<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pathway Programme:<\/strong> Pathways to Arts, Culture and Heritage (2024 cohort)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Internship Role:<\/strong> Archive Assistant<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Internship Employer:<\/strong> FXPlus Archives and Special Collections<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Summary of Organisation:<\/strong> The Archives and Special Collections Service<\/a> brings together original records with specialised book collections – unique, eclectic and inspiring sources for use in both research and creative practice. Situated on Level 0 of the Exchange on the Penryn Campus, our Collections are available to view in our Reading Room on request by appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please briefly outline the project\/tasks\/responsibilities you worked on during your Professional Pathways internship:<\/strong> “My project was working on the Len Truran Papers, to sort through documents sent to the archive, repackage them and upload them on FXPlus’ archiving software. I then completed a blog post on St Piran’s Oratory after finding some interesting documents on the conservation of the site<\/em>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you think this experience will impact on your employability as you enter the job market as a recent graduate?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“As I developed through my internship, it became clear that this sector was something I would like to continue with in my career. To be fully immersed in the working environment for a week was extremely valuable in deciding whether this would be suitable. In addition to this, I am planning to apply for postgraduate study in Archiving! For this, I need valuable experience in the field beforehand, so Professional Pathways was perfect to get a head start on this<\/em>!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why would you recommend the Professional Pathways programme to other students?<\/strong>
“I would highly recommend the Professional Pathways programme to everybody! Especially those from Cornwall, its a wonderful opportunity to travel up to Exeter and live there for a week, it is very different to Penryn. It was also exciting to meet new people and explore a new city<\/em>!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
