Tips: Before joining Trinity, the students must know this fact that the university focuses most on practical learning rather than theoretical learning, and due to this, the students must focus on gaining industry exposure to gain practical experience before coming here. It is also very essential to know that there is many cultural difference compared to India, the environment is different, the weather is different, the people are different and the cuisine is also very much different. The students must prepare themselves mentally and physically to study in a foreign land and get used to the cultural difference in the new country. Lastly, Trinity is ranked the no.1 college in Ireland, and studying here is definitely a value for money if the opportunities offered here are carefully utilised by the students.

Likes (Quality of faculty): Doing a Bachelors degree from Trinity College Dublin was a great experience, especially the experience with the faculty there. The professors and the teaching unit at Trinity are extremely supportive and address the student's problems with utmost care and concern. While facing any difficulties, the faculty gives personal attention to the particular student in need and this way the faculty is most easily approachable. In Trinity, there is more attention given to practical learning rather than theoretical learning by making the students work on the assignments and projects by themselves and research the topic deeply on their own, rather than being solely based on the lecture slides and bookish knowledge.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): Being an Indian citizens and holding an Indian passport, it is a very much complicated process to study or work in any European country because most of the European countries follow a very rigid process for immigration and visa sponsorship for international applicants. Unfortunately, some of the companies only offer internships or full-time opportunities to those holding an EU/EEA citizenship, which creates much hassle for the non EU/EEA citizens. The salary offered is pretty good for fresh graduates, but the most difficult part is the immigration and visa sponsorship, which derives the international applicants of various career opportunities.

Practical academic orientation in best university of Ireland.

Tips: It's the best University in Ireland, it has a rich heritage as it dates back to 1590. Walking inside the college every day is a pleasure, the professors are amazing and very interactive. Batch sizes are not too big so, individual attention becomes the biggest perk. In my field that is computer engineering, I feel that their curriculum is application oriented rather than theoretical. For this semester up to 60% of my grade is based on assignments and coursework and I believe that this will make me industry ready.

How Trinity nurtures student life: Crafting futures beyond graduation

Tips: Since the weather here is cold and gloomy, so initially, one may take time to get accustomed to the weather and atmosphere here, because the culture and living standards here are completely different from India. Initially, one may feel that it is difficult to adjust here, but eventually, you will start getting habitual to this place, and you will like living here. Since I got into this college through the student exchange programme, so I did get an education scholarship with tuition fees of about 25%, based on my grades at the university in India. I am satisfied with the teaching pattern of this college because there is more emphasis on practical learning, so one must brush up their concepts before coming here, so as to catch up with the pace of learning here. I have also got accustomed to the weather here and the cuisine here, but I am only dissatisfied with the job market because there is a struggle after studies to find a job.

Likes (Public transportation): The public transport available here is very affordable and feasible for the students. Since the campus is in the heart of the city, so there are a number of available modes for public transportation, mainly the buses and the luas to each part of the city. For students, public transportation is extremely cheap, and if one travels several times a day, so there is a system of capping, where you are not charged after a certain amount has been spent in travelling on a day.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): For fresh graduates, the job market is challenging here and most of the companies are quite unwilling to sponsor visas as compared to the situation of experienced professionals. There are various graduate roles available in the IT sector, but again job market is competitive for graduates, although the salary offered is good.
