4.5
Beautiful country, kind people, great opportunities and an amazing education system.
Tips: The transition has been smooth and welcoming, with a culture that feels familiar, kind people, and a lot of festivals, though the rain and cold took a little time to adjust to. The teaching is excellent and the environment is supportive. Scholarships are available across many programs, so it is worth applying early since they can reduce fees and sometimes include a small monthly stipend. Do sort out accommodation before you arrive because housing is tight. Clothes are affordable thanks to the steady weather, but electronics are expensive, so bring essentials from India. Part time work helps with living cost, so start looking as soon as you land, begin your PPSN application and complete your online residence permit. Campus roles like teaching assistant, library, or student ambassador are great option, and retail or Delhi jobs also pay decently while you study.
Likes (Post study jobs): I landed a research Data Scientist role after my Masters and many friends did well too, so its very possible to bag a nice paying job with Visa sponsorship. The number of companies sponsor visas changes, but there are plenty, especially among those with solid graduate intake. Typical roles range from graduate programs to mid and senior positions, and salaries are competitive and grow with the strength of your portfolio, communication and technical depth. If you put in consistent, focused effort, you can absolutely grab a great opportunity. Jobs in different sectors have different pay scales, but graduate roles usually play around 40k per annum, mid level play around 50-70k depending on the sector and experience, and senior level can go above 70k on average.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Adjusting to food anywhere else is always a challenge, and Galway has relatively less choices for authentic North Indian cuisine. Restaurants like Kumar's, Kashmir and Eastern Tandoori provide some variety, but they can't match the flavour like that of home. I usually prefer cooking at home, buying groceries and masalas from asian stores, though they are quite expensive.

MSc Corporate Finance - Batch of 2025
3.7
Pretty nice country for short term international exposure. Don’t think about settlement.
Tips: Be prepared to manage everything independently. The weather can be harsh, so bring suitable clothing. Obtain an Indian driving license and purchase a car as soon as possible for convenience. None of the people I met received any scholarships. The university was great, the course was decent, and the country is nice, especially if you live in Galway city.
Likes (Safety): The 5-star rating is based on the previous year, and I doubt it will remain the same in the coming years. Many immigrants are being attacked these days. While most cases still occur in Dublin, Galway is a safer option. However, the majority of jobs are in Dublin, and the conditions there for brown immigrants are far from ideal. People in Galway city are generally nice, friendly, and warm. However, incidents of teenagers attacking or harassing people after sunset are increasing and cause concern.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Most companies won't hire freshers or those with less than 3-5 years of experience at a major MNC from their home country. Job roles are also often one or two levels lower; for example, a manager from India might only get an assistant manager or senior associate position. Regarding visas, over 90% of companies reject candidates solely based on visa status, and even those who hire may not assist in renewal upon expiry, opting for a more convenient candidate instead.

MSc (Biostatistics) - Batch of 2028
3.5
Uni of Galway is a research led university with a strong multicultural base.
Tips: I found the Irish to be warm and welcoming, making my transition very smooth. I have a scholarship that provides a monthly stipend exceeding my expenses, allowing me to save a good amount. I am pursuing a 4-year structured Ph.D. with a dedicated budget of 250k euros over the course of the four years. This includes tuition waivers and a stipend. I am very satisfied with the University of Galway and its faculty, and I love Ireland.
Likes (Safety): Galway is a very safe city. You can be out and about late at night and feel safe, regardless of your gender. I've had all good experiences. There's a dedicated "call a friend" scheme where you can call a friend to walk you home if you feel unsafe. Otherwise, I've walked home at 1 am from campus several times and, thankfully, never felt unsafe. To ensure student safety, we have a dedicated medical clinic on campus, free for students. So, in case of accidents or emergencies, you can walk in without an appointment and be seen by a GP, who can then make a referral to A/E if needed.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The chances of securing a Critical Skills Work Permit have been steadily declining, based on my observations and what I've heard. This isn't specific to any background but reflects the cooling Irish job market. I know people from two years ago who haven't secured sponsorships through this visa route. However, those with backgrounds in niche domains, such as AI engineers or logistics professionals, may have a better chance and could potentially gain permanent settlement after a Stamp 4 visa, roughly within four years. I would like to make Ireland my home permanently, given the opportunity.

College and city is great but getting part time is a challenge.
Tips: Be prepared for harsh winters and a challenging housing search. While the people are friendly, public transport is subpar. Note that there are no scholarships for the Pathway B course. The course itself is good, and the professors are excellent and supportive. The assignments are engaging and enjoyable.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Professors are knowledgeable, experienced, and very helpful. The modules are well-organised, and the continuous assignments are beneficial. Activities like group assignments, debate competitions, summer schools, and outings have helped engage students and foster teamwork and public speaking skills.
Dislikes (Part time work): Finding a part-time job was very difficult. It took me three months to secure one. It seems online applications are often rejected without explanation. I also applied for part-time roles related to my studies, but never received any callbacks. While summer offers some opportunities, finding work in the winter is extremely challenging.

University is beautiful, Galway city is amazing; difficulty in getting part time job.
Tips: The university's ranking is great. The campus is very beautiful and huge compared to other schools and colleges. Professors are knowledgeable and friendly. Plenty of sports clubs and societies are available. On-campus accommodation is nice, but getting selected in the lottery is hard.
Dislikes (Part time work): Almost no on-campus part-time jobs exist. Off-campus opportunities are also very limited. It took me over three months to find a part-time job in Galway. Online applications are ineffective as they are rejected immediately, which may be due to racism. Overall, it is very difficult to find part-time work.

Master of Sciences (Cellular Manufacturing and Therapy) - Batch of 2019
4.7
A globally recognized university with industry focused education and strong career support.
Tips: Students planning to join NUIG should know that the curriculum is rigorous and industry-relevant, especially STEM courses like biopharma and cell therapy. After arriving in Ireland, I did experience a cultural shock - people are very polite, time-conscious and value personal space. I did not avail of any scholarship personally, but several merit-based scholarships are offered by the Irish government.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): Ireland provides one of the most transparent and supportive pathways for international students to settle permanently. After graduation, you can get a stamp 1G visa, which offers a 2-year post-study work period, which gives you ample time to secure a full-time job. Once you hold a valid work permit and complete 5 years of legal residence, you become eligible for step 4, which gives you residence rights. Given a chance, I would absolutely like to permanently immigrate to Ireland.
Dislikes (Public transportation): NUIG is centrally located, so it’s easy to walk or bike rather than rely on buses. Although Galway is compact and student friendly, the limited transport network and consistent schedules make it less convenient for daily computing beyond city center.
