Practical curriculum with supportive faculty
Tips: Transitioning to college here was smooth, thanks to a very welcoming and multicultural environment. The cultural shift was easy to navigate, with supportive faculty and mostly students from Indian communities who help you settle quickly. While scholarships vary depending on the intake and academics. Overall, I am very satisfied.

Overall, the college is commendable, particularly regarding its course structure, fees, and faculty.
Tips: Student Experience and Academic Overview: Academic Assistance and Networking u2022 If you don't have any technical knowledge, it is alright because they will teach from scratch and help you make a solid base. But to become more expert in the subject, you will require some extra hours other than the college work. u2022 The students of this college are very friendly, helpful and easy to approach because everyone is trying to network. Scholarship Offerings u2022 About scholarships, I got an offer letter in June 2023 in which there was an offer of u20ac1000 scholarship for me based on a Bachelor's degree and work experience. Coursework and Time Management u2022 This course is well designed, and you will not get confused in the load of assignments.
Likes (Quality of faculty): These teachers help the students handle tough situations in a great way, and they have enough knowledge. They make sure that the concepts are explained to them in such a way that they can easily comprehend them. The teaching faculty includes individuals from various nations, and they have expertise in their respective fields.
Dislikes (Internships): Internships and Employment Possibilities in Ireland: Limited Scope for Internships u2022 No internship program exists in Ireland at all. u2022 Limited scope of internship opportunities exists. u2022 Many students work part-time in retail shops. Work Opportunity Possibility u2022 Reasonable salaries are available for part-time work, and 20 hours a week can suffice to pay the basic cost of living.

Overall, my experience at DBS has been good.
Tips: Before joining DBS, you need to understand that it’s an urban college, not a traditional green-field campus. The buildings are spread across central Dublin—mainly around Aungier Street and George's Street—so instead of hanging out on a quad, your campus is basically the city itself. That's a massive advantage when it comes to location. You're minutes away from major employers, Grafton Street retail, and endless cafés, making it way easier to hunt for part-time jobs.
You get direct access to Dublin’s transport network with LUAS stops, Dublin Bus routes, and DART connections right on your doorstep. Just keep in mind that living in central Dublin comes with high housing costs, so sorting out accommodation early is crucial. If you prefer a fast-paced, city-integrated learning environment over a isolated campus bubble, DBS is a great fit.

Kind of national school..
Tips: DBS was kind of a college where you would find more Asians than Irish. You would feel there is not much difference. No such cultural shift. Less international vibe. The country is beautiful, though. Irish people are very friendly. I would say very little to no racism. Although it depends where you are living, the area or locality. They won't make you feel that you don't belong here.
Likes (Public transportation): The campus is in the city center. Public transport is easily available. Buses or trains are available and are affordable. The city center is well connected. The campus is well connected with public transport, but it is very slow. For just 10-12 km, it would take around an hour. Not very convenient.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The Irish market is very small. The population is increasing at a fast rate due to a lot of immigration. The market is very competitive. People having 4-5 years of experience are competing for the graduate roles. People do get hired, but a good connection is needed. The market is more about the referrals and connections. The job roles are mostly about IT and finance. And for finance, there are a lot of job opportunities.
