MSc in Data Analytics - Batch of 2026

Offered by National College of Ireland

4.4

An excellent choice for academic growth and student life.

Tips: Students should know that NCI has a strong focus on academics and career support but also offers a multicultural environment to explore. Transitioning here was smooth for me, though adjusting to a new culture took some time. Scholarships are available for deserving students, and I found the process straightforward. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my course, the college, and studying in Ireland.

Likes (Student Life): Student life is engaging and diverse, with a great balance of academics and extracurricular. I enjoy attending lectures, working on projects, and participating in cultural events and workshops. There are also many student clubs like tech, sports, and cultural groups that bring people together.

Dislikes (Internships): The college offers good resources and support for finding internships, especially through its career services team. They organize regular workshops, resume-building sessions, and mock interviews to help students prepare for applying to internships. The career portals are also a helpful tool, where many opportunities are posted specifically for NCI students. Additionally, the faculty is supportive and often provides guidance on how to align internships with your career goals. The internships available are generally relevant to the field of Data Analytics. Many companies in Ireland look for data analysts, and NCI's strong industry ties with local organizations make it easier to find internships that are closely related to the course content. Popular roles include data analyst, business analyst, and data visualization specialist. However, one area of improvement could be in providing more internship options, especially for international students. Some students face challenges due to visa restrictions or high competition in the job market, which can limit their opportunities. If the college could build more partnerships with companies or provide additional guidance for international students, it would enhance the overall experience. Despite these challenges, the support system provided by the college ensures that most students who actively engage with the resources can secure internships that help them gain valuable industry experience.

MSc in Cybersecurity - Batch of 2025

Offered by National College of Ireland

3.3

Good college to study MSc in Cybersecurity.

Tips: Students should know that NCI is highly regarded for its programs in business, data analytics, finance and computing, often aligning its curriculum with industry needs. Its programs are designed to be practical and focused on career readiness, making it an excellent choice for students looking to enter fields like tech, business management or data science. The public transport here is very slow and the frequency is very bad. If you miss a bus the next one will probably come in the next hour. Though that's not the case for trams, they are in intervals of 2 minutes and they are very convenient to travel within the city. Overall, I am satisfied with my experience here.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): The immigration process here in Dublin is very good. You come here on a Stamp 2 visa which allows you to study and work part-time. Once you graduate and start working that can be converted into stamp 1G which allows you to work full time.

National College Of Ireland does not provide internship.

Tips: The post-grad courses at the National College of Ireland are mostly filled by Indians, and all the technical courses comprise Indian students. They offer value-for-money courses that are relatively cheaper than other premium colleges like Trinity or UCD. They tend to offer scholarships based on your academic score and profile, and the teachers are really good.

Likes (Safety): There have been growing incidents recently in Dublin city centre about mugging and teenager misconduct but otherwise, it is very safe and people are warm and friendly. The area where the campus is located is not one of the best and there have been reports of teenagers causing ruckus.

Dislikes (Internships): The college doesn't really provide any internship opportunities and neither they have enough opportunities for students to approach companies for internships. The responsibility falls on students to look out for internships. However, the college has a placement department that helps with CV preparation and reviews but your best shot is through LinkedIn or networking.

MSc in International Business - Batch of 2019

Offered by National College of Ireland

It is only worth it if you already have an experience.

Tips: I would not recommend the college for management courses because the courses lack depth and the professors are not very good. They have more academic experience than management experience. However, the college is good for cloud computing and data analyst courses. Before you attend, thoroughly check the contents of the modules being taught.

Likes (Part time work): There are plenty of opportunities for part-time work in Dublin if you are actively looking for work. However, it can be difficult to find part-time work at a college or university. If you are well-groomed, confident, and speak fluently, you should be able to find part-time work in the city.

Dislikes (Value for money): International Business modules didn't deep dive into world finance or practical business aspects of international business like multi-national setups or foreign business funding. It should have included case studies and or structural setups from a management consulting perspective. Modes of entry subject was topline as well as strategy, very bookish than practical.

The faculty is great, approachable and always ready to help.

Tips: Life is not easy when it comes to a new country. It is fast-paced. Surely it takes some time so allow it. Bring some basic utensils from India like a pressure cooker as it is important. The weather here is rainy and windy so do bring proper jackets and coats. Try to bring some snacks and spices from India as they are costly. Try taking accommodation away from college as it is very costly around that area. A few good areas to find accommodation are - Hansfield, Clonsilla, Coalmine Adamstown etc. Be mentally prepared before you come as life will not be that easy here.

Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is good as they guide you through the issue. You can approach them for any doubts or issues. Attendance is not mandatory in college but try to attend lectures whenever possible. Teachers tend to hive information and details of important topics and subjects concerning exams and assignments. Try to finish work in a dedicated time frame.

Dislikes (Indian Food): Not many authentic Indian-origin restaurants are available. Food is also made based on Irish preferences, however, you will find some good but it is expensive. It will be difficult if you are a vegetarian it is more costly than non-veg and mostly accessible in Indian stores. Frozen food culture is here so you will find lots of variety for food.
