MSc in Software Engineering - Batch of 2025
4.4
Highly reputed college with very qualified faculty. Gives importance to practical implementations.
Tips: I received a 20% scholarship on tuition fees based on my Bachelor's academic results. I felt the university was far better than expected, and it was satisfying to begin my course here. The faculty members are understanding and do not put unnecessary pressure on students. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.
Likes (Safety): Limerick felt peaceful and safe as it has a smaller population compared to some big cities like Dublin. Students can work part-time, explore Ireland and have a good experience while studying all without any extra stress. Students can socialise with different students who come from all around the world.
Dislikes (Internships): There are many internship opportunities available for undergrad students compared to postgrad students. We can apply, and it depends on the role or field for which the students are applying for internships. But you won't get enough time for internships, as it's a one-year programme for a Master's in which we have our dissertation as well.

Bachelor of Business Studies - Batch of 2026
3.9
On-campus part-time jobs are highly competitive.
Tips: I believe the Irish culture can be a bit surprising at first, especially regarding how people behave and communicate. However, it's very easy to adapt, as Irish people are generally friendly. I was fortunate to receive a scholarship for three consecutive years. The first year was awarded for scoring over 85% in my CBSE exams in the 12th grade, and for the following two years, I had to maintain my scholarship by keeping my QCA above 3 out of 4. The scholarship was worth 8,000 euros annually. The university is very welcoming, but it can feel overwhelming due to its size. There are plenty of opportunities to get involved through clubs and societies. The course emphasises self-study, which is a great way to learn and understand the lectures.
Likes (Internships): If you are pursuing a Bachelor's degree here, you are required to complete an 8-month co-op internship during your 2nd or 3rd year, which is part of the curriculum. The university will distribute your CV, and you'll be interviewed until you're successful. These internships are usually relevant to your degree, the working conditions are excellent, and most are paid.
Dislikes (Part time work): Here, on-campus part-time jobs are highly competitive; however, there are many volunteering opportunities that provide vouchers for various stores. Off-campus jobs are relatively easier to find, but the work hours can be challenging for full-time students.

It is really a beautiful college with greenery, rivers, and many sports grounds and stadiums.
Tips: I feel it's really worth coming here as an international student; it's been a nice experience meeting students from different countries. I received a 2000 euros scholarship as a discount on my total tuition fee when I received the offer letter. The welcoming nature and high quality of life are also great.
Likes (Post study jobs): Many companies here offer sponsorship visas, and based on my conversations with working professionals, there are thriving job opportunities, especially in sectors such as pharmaceuticals and finance. The presence of numerous multinational companies and startups creates a dynamic employment landscape.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I believe the country offers a clear and structured pathway for skilled professionals to transition from temporary to permanent residence. The Ireland critical skills visas, particularly the Stamp 4 visa options, are attractive to international graduates with in-demand qualifications.

It’s one of the best colleges, would recommend going ahead and having a chance.
Tips: Students need to be well prepared. I received a scholarship. I was so happy with the university and the course offered, and it led to good achievements and the learning of different skills while interacting with Irish students. One of the best parts of the college is being involved in live projects, which help us understand what's going on.

A blend of learning and community.
Tips: There are a number of scholarship options available. Make sure to apply while making an application. The course M.Sc. in Business Analytics provides a great blend of academic professional guidance and self-learning. Be prepared to do a lot of research and most primarily if you are not very comfortable with English start to develop a basic understanding of accent. Rest assured, Ireland is a beautiful country and you will be amazed by the breathtaking landscape.
Likes (Safety): Limerick is quite good in terms of safety. Most people are well-behaved and ready to offer help in moments of need. University of Limerick is a huge campus and is situated at a well connected location through public transport. The campus provides a "First 7 weeks" programme to ensure quick access for the new students in the event of issues related to accommodation, etc.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Limerick has only a handful of options for Indian cuisine, and for vegetarians, the choices are even more limited. However, the good news is that the scene is gradually improving. Since I moved here in 2022, two new Indian restaurants have opened, offering more varieties and flavors to explore.

University of Limerick : The heart of Ireland's academic scene.
Tips: It took some time for me to adjust according to the weather as it's cold and dry most of the time. I observed many friends complaining about less vegetarian options available, but it didn't bother me as I mostly consume non-veg. People here are polite and would help if asked for. I got approved for a scholarship offered by the university, it was around 1500 euros. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my course, university and country as it offers security, quality and options to excel forward.
Likes (Safety): The campus is the safest place because it has UL security and emergency points located throughout. The city area is safe and I have not faced any security concerns to date. Just be careful if you are new to that particular area before travelling late at night.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are a number of Indian restaurants, including Aura, Swaad, and Bamboo, in the area, but you'll probably end up doing a fair bit of cooking on your own if you're on a budget. Eating out every day can get pretty expensive. I found a nice balance between the two, though. There are some good options for stocking up on groceries, too. Aldi, Tesco, and Lidl are all good options that should take care of most of your needs.
