The most diverse campus in Dublin.

Tips: The college has students from many countries so the programme is very diverse and the professors form groups/teams so that maximum diversity can be used by students in their group projects. Not many scholarships are available from the university but they should offer. The amenities the college provides are good. They also provide mentor support from alumni and the campus features for sports and academics are really good. They also offer career fairs which help develop a network in Ireland with c...

UCD - BlackRock campus has a friendly and competitive environment.

Tips: The University is an experience in and of itself. There was a big cultural shift after coming to Ireland, but it has been mostly positive till now. There are multiple scholarships to choose from, but make sure to apply for them as early as possible. Part-time jobs are very scarce, so apply for them at the beginning of January if you're planning on starting your studies in the September intake.

Likes (Public transportation): The University College Dublin Blackrock campus is well connected to the city by buses and trains. The ca...

UCD is very reputed in Ireland, and I value the place it holds here.

Tips: Only if you are ready to face challenges please take up this option. The first semester would be tough since you are going through many changes. Lectures are pretty long, I advise everyone to participate in class discussions. You tend to learn a lot then. Overall, I am quite satisfied with the course and the country.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): Ireland is a country that is not as well-known as others, but it is becoming more popular. Ireland is part of the EU, which makes the immigration process easier. I haven't done a lot...

University College Dublin is good and eventually will get through the phase.

Tips: I chose Ireland because it is a great place to live and work, provides a lot of opportunities and careers and is a hub for IT companies. But before you go, do your research. Analyse the university rankings, the country rankings, and the climate. Also, look at the job market and how you will survive there.

Good learning opportunity to grow professionally.

Tips: The faculty is experienced, and the course structure is high-level. There was no cultural shift, as you'll find a lot of Indians here and a lot of Indian eateries. The people are nice and very accommodating, and language is not a barrier. If you are looking for a college that is international in scope, this is a good choice. I'm satisfied with this college and the course I took.

Very stressful environment and it is hard to manage between college and part-time.

Tips: The workload is too much, and with the part-time job, it's a total mess. On top of that, we're not even getting paid on time, and people are taking advantage of the students by making them work more. I'm not sure what to do at this point. No company has offered me anything, and I'm not sure if anyone will. I'm confused about what to do.

The college is a vibrant and happening place with lots of exciting coursework and activities.

Tips: We know our batchmates with the help of a college group where before coming up we had meetups and shared our ideas with each other. I feel like I have another family in a different country. I didn't get any scholarship and I am fully satisfied with the course.

UCD is the place where you stop searching and start applying.

Tips: Before selecting any course, university, or country, do your own research. Know your purpose, and compare all the different options. Don't rush into a decision, and don't settle for less than what you want. I'm satisfied with my course content, but scholarship opportunities could have been better.

Hands-on experience, practical knowledge and research oriented.

Tips: Students should know that it is important to socialise by doing regular meetups, creating a community of people and sharing their ideas. They post their problems and more poeple come to help. The work culture and quality of life in this country are amazing. The people here are so warm and welcoming, and they enjoy nature in a way that I have never seen in India. It is a stark contrast to what I have seen back in India. Companies here are actually thinking about their employees in the best possib...

University College Dublin is good for business management course.

Tips: Students should be aware of the cold climate and should be well-versed in good time management. Here it is way behind in technological advancement so be ready to hustle without much of the technological help. The faculty are friendly and understanding so they will help you in case you have any difficulties. I did apply for the scholarship but unfortunately couldn't make it. I am very much satisfied with my university and course.
