My transformative learning journey at DCU.
Tips: Students must know the fact that DCU offers a highly supportive academic environment where all the students should be prepared for a research oriented and fast paced learning.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The lecturers in my department are highly knowledgeable, well skilled and experienced. They ensure a supportive learning environment which combines a positive and inclusive classroom. The most important factor I have noticed about their teaching style is the use of practical real world case studies for discussion rather than just delivering information to the students. Since we have got lecturers from different nationalities and backgrounds, students are getting exposed to global perspectives at a higher level which prepares them professionally and academically.
Dislikes (Value for money): I feel the tuition fee to be relatively higher even though the quality of teaching, resources provided qualities are unmatched. I ensure that quality of the content and staff support are top notch. Additional student support activities can be incorporated on a regular basis.

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 course work 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.

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.

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.
