Hands-on learning and a welcoming community at TUD.
Tips: Before joining TUD, students should know that the university offers a strong focus on practical, career-oriented learning. The academic schedule can be intensive, so it's beneficial to be organized and prepared for an active learning environment. Transitioning to TUD, especially if you're an international student, can bring a cultural shift. Many students experience differences in teaching style, communication, and the balance between academic and social life. Ireland's friendly culture makes it easier to adapt, and the university offers support services and activities to help students feel welcome and engaged. If you're considering scholarships, TUD has various options, especially for international students. Scholarships may depend on academic merit, specific programs, or partnerships with organizations. Information on applying and requirements is typically available on the university website or through the international office. Scholarship allowances vary, but they often help cover a portion of tuition fees.
Likes (Internships): Regarding guidance, TUD typically offers considerable support to help students find and apply for internships. Career services, department advisors, and faculty often provide resources, including resume workshops, interview preparation sessions, and networking events. Additionally, some departments may have dedicated internship coordinators who guide students in securing placements aligned with their career goals. Internships available through TUD are generally well-aligned with students' fields of study. This relevance helps students gain practical experience that complements their academic learning, allowing them to apply theoretical knowledge directly to industry-related tasks.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): In terms of accessibility, faculty members in many departments at TUD are typically very approachable, maintaining regular office hours and being responsive to emails, fostering an environment where students feel comfortable seeking support. As for diversity, TUD faculty often includes members from varied national and international backgrounds, enriching the academic environment with a broad range of perspectives and cultural insights. This diversity helps students gain a more global outlook, which is valuable in today's interconnected world.

A lot of theory and learning to do but if it's the course for you it won't be hard to get used to it plus the people in your course can help you out !

This place requires hard work.
Tips: Students need to be very proactive. The students will be pressured to work very hard. No scholarships are being provided unless you are an excellent student. I am quite satisfied with my university as I don't mind working hard.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The professors here in the university are good but not very well versed in teaching. The way they teach is they will display a PowerPoint presentation of the topic and then deliver a lecture about it. That is the form of teaching that we experience here.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Post study job opportunities are not very widely available. It is easier to get a job if you have experience. But if you lack experience it is harder to land a job. The issue of visas also comes into the picture. The recruiter mostly prefers people with 1g visa.

Great university and great faculties
Tips: It’s a great university for technical courses, being a technological university, so choose it for those courses. I would suggest you check the critical skills list and check out which courses will help you get into the critical skill jobs, which will help you maximize your investment.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): The critical skills employment permit is a great way to easily get a permanent immigrant or even naturalization status. It takes only 2 years on CSEP to get permanent resident status and after just 5 years you can apply for naturalization too, which is a great perk.
Dislikes (Safety): The city has a drug addiction problem, there are junkies everywhere in the city, and if not junkies you’ll face alcoholics who’ll harass you for money. Although if you are street smart, these issues won’t bother you much and you can pretty much enjoy your life here.
