MSc in Computing (with Major Options) - Batch of 2024
4.7
Great college with strong learning in every subject and many societies to join based on interests.
Tips: The university offers a great learning experience with supportive faculty and diverse opportunities. Irish people are known to be warm, welcoming, and friendly. Always say "thank you" often, and avoid using "sir" for everyone; address people by their names instead. You should also remember there is not much difference in which university you join to complete your studies, since you have to do applications by yourself for jobs. Also, it is not that easy to get the jobs you need to do a lot of applications.

Flexible but hectic during peak time.
Tips: Focus on finishing your coursework first before looking for part-time jobs. Be interactive and engage during classes. And, be super careful with your assignments. Make sure they're all original and no plagiarism. The school takes that stuff super seriously, and it could even lead to visa problems.

MSc in Management of Operations - Batch of 2026
2.8
Good university with great teaching programs.
Tips: Get ready to study harder and face the challenges. Get involved in class, make more grinders, and enjoy. Attend college events and register for the new events happening in the college. The courses are great and you will get help from lecturers when needed. It is very hard to get a part-time job without a reference. You will see a lot of rejections, and it's hard to find new jobs. Racism is high, and people are quite rude in Dublin. Be careful when meeting young teenagers on the road. However, it's the best option for anyone looking to live there.
Dislikes (Indian Food): The amount of food available is limited, and the cost is high, so we have little money left to spend. We eat at a handful of restaurants and shop at the expensive Asian stores. So, groceries and transport are where our money goes. We get hungry, but there is not enough food for everyone. I wish there were more places to eat.

MSc in Finance - Batch of 2026
3.6
Well designed to cater educational needs.
Tips: The accent was a bit challenging initially, but I eventually got used to it. I received a scholarship of 2000 euros, awarded based on my academic performance. I am satisfied with the university; it's fun and offers a good balance between part-time work and studies. The only downside is the weather.
Likes (Public transportation): It's all well-connected and well-designed, with most places offering 24/7 services. Students benefit from cheaper transportation, paying just 1 euro for a 90-minute bus ride. While Ireland also has good rail and Luas systems, the bus provides reliable 24/7 service.
Dislikes (Safety): Safety is everyone's utmost priority, but recently, Indians have faced issues with teenagers, including bullying, theft, and fights. Garda is not readily available, and some loopholes favour teenagers, which are being exploited. Medical services are also not up to par.

4.1
A learning and insightful experience.
Tips: I cannot deny that there were no cultural shifts, of course, it is very different here from what we had back home, but a good experience. Of course, jobs and markets, everything is bad currently, not very pleasing, but living through it. Except that I loved the experience.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty members were really good and approachable, and their classes were helpful. We were given support whenever required. We also had tutorials which gave us additional support along with the regular classes, which made it easier for us to cope with the subjects.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The job opportunities are not many, and the market is actually very bad here now; not much available for us. And since the cost of living is high, it is difficult to manage. For the people who graduated also finding a job is being a task here; it might not be the right time to move here.

Academically oriented university with a vibrant student life.
Tips: Graduation from university can be a rewarding and enriching experience, especially for international students. The academic environment is supportive, diverse, and intellectually stimulating, with a strong emphasis on research, critical thinking, and practical learning. Universities in Dublin are known for their inclusive campus culture, excellent faculty, and vibrant student communities, making the overall educational journey a positive one. Students also benefit from access to various resources such as career services, internship opportunities, and extracurricular activities that help develop both academic and personal skills. However, while the graduation experience is generally excellent, transitioning into the job market can present significant challenges for international students. Despite holding a reputable Irish degree, many face difficulties in securing employment due to factors such as limited work visa options, employers' preference for local candidates, and high competition in certain sectors. Some industries may also require additional certification or specific experience within the European job market, which can be a barrier for recent graduates. Additionally, while Ireland offers post-study work visas for international graduates, the duration and conditions may not always align with the time required to find stable employment. This situation can create stress and uncertainty during the post-graduation period. Therefore, while studying in Dublin offers a strong foundation and a memorable academic experience, international students should proactively plan for their career path, seek internships early, and stay informed about immigration policies to better navigate the challenging job market after graduation.
Likes (Safety): Dublin is generally considered a safe city for students, offering a welcoming and secure environment for both local and international learners. The city takes student welfare seriously, and numerous measures are in place to ensure their safety in academic, residential, and public spaces. Universities and colleges in Dublin often have dedicated support services, including campus security, student helplines, and counselling centres, which contribute significantly to the overall sense of safety. Many institutions also conduct regular safety briefings and provide resources to help students navigate the city with confidence. Public transportation, while occasionally delayed, is widely used and considered safe, particularly during the day. Most areas frequented by students are well-lit and monitored by CCTV, and the presence of community policing helps maintain a visible and reassuring security presence. In addition, Dublin has relatively low violent crime rates compared to other European capitals, making it a comfortable place for young adults to live and study. Neighbourhoods that house a large student population, such as Rathmines, Drumcondra, and Phibsborough, are typically friendly and well-integrated with the broader community. Social activities and cultural events also play a role in fostering a sense of belonging and safety. While, like any city, students need to remain aware of their surroundings and take basic precautions, the overall environment in Dublin is supportive and secure. With proactive safety initiatives and a strong community atmosphere, students can focus on their academic goals while enjoying a positive and protected urban experience.
Dislikes (Public transportation): Although Dublin is well connected, bus often gets delayed. Dublin has a well-connected public transport system, with buses serving as a key mode of travel across the city. However, despite their wide coverage, buses are often delayed due to traffic congestion, roadworks, and weather conditions. These issues can make commute times unpredictable, especially during peak hours. While real-time tracking and service updates have improved the user experience, delays remain a common frustration for many users. Continue investment in dedicated bus lanes, improved traffic management, and alternative transport options will be essential to enhancing the reliability and efficiency of Dublin's bus services.
