MSc in Business Analytics - Batch of 2025
Offered by University of Limerick
3.6
There is no placement support for MSc in Business Analytics.
Tips: There was a huge cultural shift here. Initially I was finding it difficult here to get accommodated but if you get the right people around you feel at home. I did not avail any scholarship but there are people who were offered scholarships it was based on their previous academics.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transport is available with a frequency of 10 minutes from morning to evening to the city centre. Also to other cities from my city with a frequency of 1 hour. Public transport for students is at a discounted price here when compared to the normal prices.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There is no placement support for the course I have done and most of the courses are the same, although you get a Masters degree in a year it is very difficult to get a job in your domain. There are career fair taken place on the campus, but they would be mostly for the undergraduate students.

University of Limerick is a welcoming campus with solid academic and a great student life.
Tips: As an international student the transition was smooth. UL has a welcoming multicultural environment and supportive International Office. Ireland's friendly culture made settling pretty easy. I didn't avail any scholarships but options like the Global Excellence Scholarship are available for eligible students though competition is fierce. I'm very satisfied with my course, the campus facilities and living in Ireland in general.
Likes (Public transportation): The campus is well connected to Limerick City via bus Eireann routes which is a reliable bus company here with buses running frequently throughout the day. A student Leap card makes it affordable at around 0.65 cent per trip. Bus is the main mode of transportation along with taxi. Getting around is easy and budget-friendly by bus for students.
Dislikes (Part time work): On-campus jobs like teaching assistants and ambassador roles exist but are limited and competitive. Off- campus, there's plenty of retail, hospitality roles in Castleroy, Limerick, the place where I live currently. I have worked part time at JD Sports Ireland. Most employers are flexible and pay is around 14.20 euros. Balancing work with academics is manageable if you plan around exam periods and heavy coursework weeks.

MSc in Psychological Science - Batch of 2026

4.3
A rewarding academic journey.
Tips: Students must research about course structure, modules under the course, living costs, transportation, cultural aspects, accommodation, and the job market for the particular field. One must learn the work culture practised here. A scholarship is usually provided to every student in most of the universities.
Likes (Value for money): High quality of education, affordable living compared to other countries, post graduation opportunities and many student facilities. Most of the universities provide a good amount of scholarship to every student. It is comparatively lower than many other countries, where you have a 2 years Masters degree.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Ireland offers clear pathways for skilled workers especially in healthcare, tech and engineering but the competition is high so the process might be slow. If you have a job in the demanded field, the chances for permanent settlement are much higher.

Vibrant campus and peers.
Tips: UL is student-centric and is one of the biggest campuses in Ireland. There are a lot of opportunities to meet people from different courses, and it makes your time there valuable and wisely spent. Everyone on campus is welcoming and I haven't faced any racism or discrimination during my stay there. I didn't avail any scholarship.
Likes (Quality of faculty): All the faculty are Ph.D. holders and have very deep knowledge in their subjects. They are very approachable and provide suggestion to our career path. Each faculty has its own methods of teaching, and most of the courses are a mix of theory and lab sessions.
Dislikes (Part time work): Getting an on-campus part-time job as a lab assistant is very difficult, and off-campus opportunities as a student is also very limited. Part-time pay is the basic salary decided by the government. Students are allowed to work max 20 hours during the student term.

Peaceful and beautiful environment.
Tips: Make sure to pay tuition fees and accommodation fees on time. Before the conversion rate increases day by day, also make sure to know more about Ireland before entering, especially for freshers. Choose your course wisely also consider how the job markets are to understand if you are availing a loan .
Dislikes (Internships): The university will only help in conducting a career fair; they won't arrange for an internship or job opportunity. We have to explore by visiting career websites and applying for the job which includes both internships and full time. Job opportunities so be prepared for all guys.
