Dublin City University - DCU Speciality : Education
programme: BSc. Education and Training

Dublin City University, in my opinion, is a social hub for meeting new people and making friends through its 150 clubs and societies. As students create these ‘clubs’ and ‘socs’, there’s something for everyone, and it creates a warm atmosphere on campus offering a great balance to lectures. As for lectures (the more serious side!), the staff are highly qualified, with most of my lectures having a PhD or working towards it. I had a positive relationship with most of my lecturers (there’s always one). There is also a students’ union to voice any concerns and a writing centre to support essay writing skills (very useful!). The downside, for me anyway, is that DCU have recently decided to remove alumni email accounts from their system. Its affects alumni (me) but not so much current or new students. Apart from that, I got good vibes and campus life was unforgettable!
