She has held numerous roles across UCD since joining in November 2012. Emma has a MSc in Project Management from the Michael Smurfit Graduate School of Business. She has worked previously in several other third level institutions in Ireland since 2010, with international expertise at the heart of her early career. Most recently she has pivoted towards project staff facing roles for programme development, consulting, event management, technology implementation and advanced communications.
