The lecturers are very helpful, take time to answer any questions thoroughly.
Prototypes of the project can be made using 3D printing, which was useful.
The class timetable is full of long lecturer hours every day.
The library is good.

I feel that this university provides a lot of one-on-one time compared to other universities. As the college is smaller than universities like Trinity and UCC, the classes are smaller and it gives the lecturers a chance to actually learn your name etc. They are able to give you more time and advise as the classes are smaller also and you get the attention/ help you might need during your course. It’s also a fantastic college for hands-on courses such as engineering and photography. It has plenty of labs for all of these types of courses and all the machinery or equipment to allow students to learn as much as possible before going into a work environment and being expected to completed similar tasks.

They offer great courses and facilities to students. Lots of societies to sign up to and they have a great student union. The lecturers are great and are very helpful, small classes so you can learn a lot more.
