The college placements are well and good. Good students can easily get into the campus drive. Humber gets lot of companies for off campus placements. After completing this degree, one can easily get job of Software application developer, Web developer, COmputer ystem engineer, Databse Administrator, Computer system analyst.

To get into this collge one should have scored an average score of 70% in their previous degree and should have IELTS score of 6.5 and above. One should be proficient in English speaking and writing. To prepare for the admission I took IELTS coaching from a unacademy. I constantly kept eye on scholarship programs.

Multiple opportunities are floated through the college professors. The college organizes multiple job fairs as well. Since UCD is one of the top colleges in the country, placements rates and average salaries are higher than other colleges. An extremely expanded network attracts a wide range of internships, graduate program roles as well as government roles while your time at UCD. Over 45 companies visited each of the 2 job fairs organized. Over 80-90 profiles were up for grabs. An average of 2-3 interviews were seen to be received for a lot of applicants. Since placement since is ongoing, details about the no. of students placed and the average salary is not yet out in the open.

One of the top 2 institutions in Ireland. Most visited campus by potential employers. The highest number of internships, and placements offered. Higher Avg. salary after completion than all other Irish institutions. Huge alumni community. Best in Ireland for STEM courses. School of Economics is one of the best departments in Europe.

UCD has a separate organization that keeps on posting the latest jobs and opportunities. I would advise keeping an eye on this for open positions.

There are many factors such as It is in Europe which is overall beautiful. The Ph.D. is funded and the scholarship covers all the expenses. Less work pressure as compared to the PhDs in USA and Canada.

Since I am from pharma/biotech background, I feel the opportunities are plenty and there is enough room to explore and gain experience. I am planning to get into management roles after I graduate.

Because it has the course that I exactly want. No other university in Ireland has this.

The salary structure varies with experience. Students can work after their course ends in various non governmental organizations and think tanks with a valid amount of experience. There are various research options available as well for doing a PhD and working in the research field.

I have always been passionate about taking this course at this particular university due to its dynamic course curriculum, eminent faculty members and brilliant academic output in the field of research and policy development.

I never applied for jobs. But the placement rate is pretty high from what I know. The UCD Career Development Centre helps students in their careers including conducting monthly job fairs and CV workshops.

I chose particular program because I was interested in the ways in which disciplines like Philosophy and literature overlap and build each other. Plus I was very much interested in postcolonial philosophy so the school offered me modules that met my interests. The course was very interdisciplinary and I could take subjects from across various departments. The university is very student friendly and learning is very holistic. I thoroughly enjoyed my student life.
