What transferable skills can you getting from studying art in college/university, me and a mate of mine went to the same college and I'd say we were pretty much the same in terms of knowledge and anything else you normally use in an interview but he did art and I did painting and decorating, which sounds better in a job interview a hands on person who has some tradesmen skills or someone who spent two years painting pretty pictures? I know which I think sounds better in an interview for most jobs.
Art seems like a bit of a pointless subject to me, everytime I asked what he was doing and would often get shown a photo on his phone of a drawing, then I'd explain my day which often went like: remove wallpaper, sand wall down and start applying an undercoat to the wall after my break.
By the way despite my decorating certificates I was not really that good, especially at wallpapering.
