Good student life but academically okay
Tips: The classes are for 2 hours a week which is very less for any subject. Few of the subjects are not even related. You need to study on your own in order to learn something new. Also, some assignments are really bad and so unrelated that it does not make sense to do them.
Likes (Student Life): Lots of events and trips to different places. You can join many clubs of your choice. You will have a good time studying with access to the library and most importantly access to mardyke sports arena which has multiple options for fitness and that too for free.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): Some faculty members don't care about the recent trends and don't know how to teach. I did not like the quality of the faculty here.

Quality enhancement at UCC
Tips: Studying abroad in University college Cork was the best decision I took back while I was in India. The campus is beautiful and the classes are competitive but they can be managed. People here are very warm and welcoming in nature. The city is very safe and is very modern. I highly recommend this city and university to fellow Indian students. Not only academics you'll get to learn a lot about Irish Culture and I believe that it is what diversifies you.

Excellent University - Good experience overall.
Tips: UCC is one of the most prestigious universities in Ireland. My experience as a student has been really amazing. Professors are knowledgeable and very helpful. All things such as getting a Student ID or a leap card is very easy and every process in university is very well managed. Professors support international students as students can reach out to them easily for any queries. Fees are also affordable in comparison to other universities which are similar to UCC in reputation & ranking. Attendance criteria is also not very strict.
Likes (Post study jobs): Ireland is best for post study opportunities. I am receiving a lot of calls and LinkedIn messages for full time opportunities based on my previous work experience. Dublin is the IT hub of Europe and all the top multi national companies are here in Ireland. There are very high chances of getting a good job here in Ireland after completing studies if a student has good work experience or if a student studies sincerely.
Dislikes (Part time work): Quality jobs such as Technical IT jobs & teaching jobs are not available in part time. Quality jobs are available in full time Easily available part time jobs are in fast food joints such as McDonald's, Subway & Burger King. These types of jobs are easy to get but they require a lot of effort because there is no place to sit and they will keep on assigning random tasks continuously.

University to have fun, learn and explore more!
Tips: University college cork is really the best college in town. It has good infrastructure. Academicians here are very knowledgeable and approachable to clear our doubts at all times. They have a good Indian society club and a lot of programs are conducted through this society.
Likes (Student Life): Student life is really good here. The campus is excellent. Classes are conducted for maximum 3-4 hours a day so that we can concentrate, prepare the topics and explore on our own. There are several clubs and societies that we can join for free and we get a lot of insights from them.
Dislikes (Public transportation): There are no frequent buses available from time to time for traveling. We must wait for at least half an hour to get a bus for some particular route. But if you own your own electric scooter or bicycle then it will be easier to travel around in the city.

Friendly environment in the university.
Tips: Before joining, there should be an evaluation of what kind of environment we are willing to go to. For example, it rains a lot in Cork. There would be days when the weather will be rough and one has to hustle. The curriculum of the course module should be looked into. This opens up what we actually want to achieve in college. Connect with similar minded people on LinkedIn for honest opinions.
Likes (Post study jobs): UCC is one of the biggest university in Ireland and holds a reputation in the country. Students from all around the world come to study here. This means there is a diverse pool of knowledge exchange. These shapes one's career journey. Opens door to opportunity.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part time work is difficult to maintain as the course is only for 1 year. Most of the time, there will be assignments to finish that overlaps with part time. Difficult to find a part time work as Cork is not a big place. However, students still manage to find part time by healthy discussions with the manager so timings can be sorted.
