The faculty is extremely helpful and understanding.
Tips: I didn't face a cultural shift as such as I had done my research beforehand. People are extremely polite here so ensure that you don't disturb them in any way. Scholarships are available that the university provides based on merit. I am truly satisfied with my university, course and country so far.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is extremely helpful and understanding they will help you with any and everything. The teaching style of faculty at its core is more preference given to self study and more on academic and real world examples in class and a lot of self reading. The teaching faculty is diverse and brings varying responses and thoughts to the table.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Things are always changing here, especially with immigration, so that's why I gave it a 3. It's tough to get a permanent residency because it mostly depends on sponsorship. But I'd really love to stay here for good if I could, because I've enjoyed my time here a lot.

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.
