MSc Data Science and Analytics - Batch of 2022
2.8
University College Cork has very limited internship opportunities.
Tips: Life is struggling in Ireland. The transportation system isn't very good, and the cost of tuition for non-EU students is high. However, I did receive a scholarship that lowered my tuition by 5,000 euros, so the university is good. In Ireland, college rankings don't matter but your skills will help you get a job.
Likes (Safety): Ireland is generally very safe with low crime rates. However, there is always room for improvement. The city and university provide various safety facilities, such as well-lit streets. During my time in Ireland, I never encountered any serious safety concerns.
Dislikes (Internships): The one-year master's program left little room for pursuing such opportunities. Given the time constraints and scheduling conflicts, the available internships were not tailored to fit into our academic calendar.

University College Cork provides scholarships based on individual academic performance.
Tips: The culture shift is huge in terms of work culture, but it's quite easygoing with a lot of self-development time. The university provides scholarships based on individual academic performance, and I received one based on my class 10 and 12 performance, as well as my bachelor's degree.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): Permanent settlement in Ireland is an easy option, as it takes just 5-6 years to get permanent residency. Although I haven't given any thought to permanent immigration, it wouldn't be a bad idea to stay here for 5-10 years and then consider other options.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are not many proper Indian restaurants to choose from. The pricing depends on the restaurant's location. The pricing is on a bit higher side with one main dish costing around 17-18 Euros. The restaurant isn't up to the mark as per Indian taste. Cooking yourself can be a better option.

Thorough evaluation and thought must be given before you commit to the course.
Tips: The course was quite stressful and didn't have a lot of options including some hidden conditions such as only qualifying for your full master's degree on scoring a 60 above on average. The course isn't designed for fresh graduates. You are in a much better position if you approach this after at least 5 years of experience.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty were pretty approachable but there are a few who weren't. Overall staff were pretty accessible. But most of them do not entertain or support questions / provide support post examinations. Make sure you have a clear path after graduation to ensure a stress-free transition from student life to graduate life.
Dislikes (Indian Food): A lot of options are available but they do end up being quite pricey for a meal. Indian food is quite hard to find in Cork but it is available but slightly pricey so it is better to buy groceries and have homemade meals. Also, avail of student discounts wherever possible and claim free memberships from larger stores to help save some extra cash.

MSc Information Systems for Business Performance - Batch of 2022
4.9
The university has a wonderful, warm and excellent college atmosphere.
Tips: It was a cultural shock for me when I came here but as it's being said slowly and gradually you start loving it. Becoming independent and decision-making is the best thing that happened to me after coming here. I am very much satisfied with the work culture. I got a scholarship of 2000 Euros.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): You can avail the citizenship in 5 years after being a regular taxpayer and it depends if I want to avail that opportunity as I am here for 3 years and 2 years doing the job. It also depends on the company if they want to sponsor you otherwise you can sponsor yourself as well once your job is in the critical list of occupations and general as well. If you wish to stay here for a long tenure you will be getting ample opportunities. Last but not least patience is the key, always remember that.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): It depends on the company-to-company basis, but if you have some work experience before coming for a Master's definitely you will be getting an edge over freshers and you can get a job easily, being technical never goes out of fashion. If you have more than 3 years' experience then the country is for you, they need technical professionals.

Transitioning to Irish Academia is tough. Relevant experience will help in landing a job.
Tips: As a student who transition from India to Ireland, I experienced a notable cultural shift. However, I found the Irish people exceptionally hospital and polite, which greatly eased my adaptation. For those considering this move, it's important to embrace these new cultural experiences with an open mind. In terms of accommodation, my initial experience in 2020 was quite smooth. However, it's crucial for the incoming students to be aware that the current situation has changed - finding an accommodation is now more challenging and expensive. Early planning and budgeting are key. The university itself offers a high-quality learning environment. The faculty are not just teachers; they are experts in their respective fields, bringing a depth of knowledge and real-world experience, providing students with a solid foundation in their chosen field. The course structure, particularly the one-year programme, is intense but highly beneficial. It strike a fine balance between academic rigour and professional relevance, making them ideal for those at this stage of life. For those interested in further study, the university offers excellent research opportunities, especially for Ph.D. candidates. Overall, I am very satisfied with my experience at the university, the course and life in Ireland. Well, I must say, it is expensive to live in Ireland, especially if living in cities like Dublin, Cork or Galway. Ireland is of one of the most expensive countries in Europe. One more thing, university degree is not sufficient to secure a job here. You need to have relevant experience here to get a job.
Likes (Student Life): Being a part of COVID Batch, my college experience was largely online, missing the traditional campus vibrancy. In contrast, students from later batches enjoy a lively college life, filled with engaging events and parties, showcasing the university's dynamic and interactive culture.
Dislikes (Internships): The course is of one year and there is no time for internship. Also, the semester is divided into 3 semesters, 2 of them are the coursework while the last one is a project/internship and I hardly know anyone who did internship. The data Science is still growing in Ireland and hence it is difficult to find an internship opportunity especially post studies. Having good people can definitely help in bringing growth to the data culture in here.

Wonderful and filled with opportunities.
Tips: There is always a cultural shift and students coming here should keep that in mind. Networking is important, and talking to people helps through the transition. Students can get scholarships based on their Bachelors grade. Overall I am very satisfied with the university, the course structure, teaching and opportunities.
Likes (Safety): There are no concerns for safety in Cork City, but it is always better to be careful and sensible. People can travel late night. My advice would be not to be careless when it comes to safety. There maybe drunk people or junkies roaming late night so if you are walking late make sure you are in a group and not alone.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The job opportunities are not many at the moment. There are lots of immigrants and the market is relatively small so chances of getting permanent residence is difficult. My advice would be if someone is a fresher or with less than 3 years of experience then they should delay their travel to Ireland and get some proper experience first atleast 5 years. Ireland has a good market for experienced professionals and companies generally sponsor visa if the candidate has good experience.
