Good evening All,

Please i need help with admission for my younger bro. He read Mechanical Engineering for his undergraduate and had a 2.2 from FUT Minna. My challenge is i have the option of MSC Mechanical Engineering or MSc Applied Computing from DIT. I would appreciate if anyone could help with further info on the MSC Applied Computing (that's with respect to how relevant is it in the IT space) and any other advice on how to help switch him to Masters IT related courses.

Please who is studying at Limerick? Are there job part time opportunities there

Some of the questions I find people ask here are really disturbing.. I see people ask questions that have been answered over and over again.. How easy is it to ge a job in Ireland PR and stuff,, brethren, it's not easy anywhere,not even in Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the USA let no one deceive you.. Combining work and school is damn stressful and you should brace yourself for it... The only compensation is your efforts eventually pay off.. My advice is for you to hope for the best but expect the worst.. Enter the Ireland first and then sort yourself out. The Nigerians there aren't dead naw.. Let's also have in mind that this Irish people also read all this comments here as it is public.. Pray for God to favor you and do your best.. Leave the rest..

Thank you for your response. I will go through the thread. I graduated with 2.2 B. Sc degree Zoology.

Why not take some time to read through this thread from the beginning. You'll find valuable information especially with regards to getting jobs after study and what is required in making an application. Please do as you'll learn from mistakes others have made in the past.

In finding a course: Google the course title + Ireland and see what comes up. I am doing a Masters in Sustainable Resource Management. It's a joint program by NUIG and UL but i think this year both schools will handle it independently. At NUIG the sustainability courses were more in line with the environment like ecology, environment & health, biodiversity, while at UL we're doing Engineering sustainability, transport and urban household sustainability.

Again what's your background? Read through the thread. You'll be better informed that way and I'm sure you'll be happy you did.

ICaSNg:

Definitely YES... A student is entitled to 20 hours per week for work during term-period

Hello good evening. Please can my brother be my sponsor. Which one is preferable towards visa application. Father or brother (same surname)

Thank you for your response. I will go through the thread. I graduated with 2.2 B. Sc degree Zoology.

I have a colleague who did Zoology for her undergraduate degree. The course at NUIG sounds like a better fit as that's where we did all the biodiversity/animal related studies. We carried out some ecological assessments on animals too but mostly small mammals. Feel free to holla if you need any more info after you're done going through the thread that is All the best.

sponsorship for an irish visa involves a whole lot of documentations or supporting docs, so its actually about either one of them that has the necessary paperwork...

Hi everyone I've read through the thread (102 pages) and I must say it's been very helpful.

I'm interested in studying in Ireland for a masters degree, I'm considering applying for a masters in FinTech from NCI (For this course what's my chance of getting the €5,000 scholarship with 3.0/5.0 CGPA in Business Administration? Secondly for someone who has had no previous background in programming or IT only a keen interest in Finance and who's looking to acquire a skill set in demand would it be realistic to follow this career path, can I actually achieve this bearing in mind that I'll also have a part time job while studying?

On the other hand I recently got an offer to study in Griffith College (Limerick) Masters in supply and procurement which is like a second option, I applied to the school directly I'm considering sending the school a mail asking for a discount? In the course of reading through the thread I noticed some people got discounts, my question is how did you get them and since I haven't gotten any should I request for it? I don't mind saving some costs where I can.

Please any advice/opinions would be highly welcomed.

ICaSNg:

Hi Justwise,

Your message is understood.

However, I just take my time to assist people with their questions both here and off the forum. So my intention is not to advertise any agency whatsoever but to assist people with their inquiries for free.

Cheers.

Hi everyone
I recently got a Conditional offer to study Msc construction Project Management at WATERFORD INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY in Ireland , having gone through some pages on this thread,I haven’t come across anyone mention the institution, I’d like to know if anyone has information as regards the city & the institution, so I know whether to accept or decline and look towards other universities

I may be wrong but I think it’s one of the schools that merged with Dit. Like I said I may be wrong, Goodluck.

No its not. WIT I believe is a good school. Ireland has very few universities important thing to look out for is accreditation and more importantly courses covered if it aligns with your career goals.

Please I want to apply to NUIG, can I go ahead with ielts exam. Though I'm preparing for the exam for visa. Is it required in gaining admission in the school?

Thank you.

Hi guys, please has anyone applied for the GOI-IES scholarship?

I applied for the scholarship but didn't receive any feedback. Did anyone receive a response (perhaps an "Application Successful" email) of some sort?

I didn't get any so I need to be sure I did it right and they got my mail. Wana know if i should resend my application or just wait.

Hi! Hope u are doing great over there. please i have got some few questions to ask about this GOI-IES scholarship scheme. please did u got it or know anyone who was fortunate to get the offer?

Kindly reply at your CONVIENINCE

ICaSNg:


Data Science or data analysis plays huge role in fintech;
However, Data Analysis on its own can be used in different sectors and requires medium to high level of programming and statistical analysis.

Fintech on the other hand can be a paid career prospect or entrepreneurial prospect ; it however involves quality and quantity programming skills including machine learning and predictive / behavioural analysis.

One important factor to note is that, you won't be taught all you need to know or excel in uni, alot goes into self development.

So I won't be able advise on which one you should choose as I/ don't know your programming strengths.

Personally, I detest programming so I settled for Business Analysis- covered advanced excel, Mysql, , statistical packages including R ; some schools used SPSS while other universities in the UK zeroed in on SAS and MS-SQL.

My point is know your strength and pick based on your passion.

Thanks so much ma. You are a blessing to us.
I rili appreciate

Hi richvictor,

The career prospects for Data analytics and Fin Tech are as follows:

Data analytics: graduates will be capable of creating specialist start-ups or fulfilling roles such as data scientist, Business intelligence analyst, data analyst, and data mining engineer.

Fin Tech: this provides graduates for in-demand roles such as data analyst, financial engineer, digital trader, financial data engineer, business analyst, financial engineer, digital portfolio manager, capital market analyst, funds analyst, and blockchain technologist.

I hope the above information helps you to decide which one you will go for.

if you still have any question related to this, or the schools in Ireland, or any other thing about education or living in Ireland, feel free to ask.

cheers.

God bless u sir for ur contribution

How about fees of on campus and off campus accommodation and what is your personal experience about this.

I'm presently studying in University of Limerick (UL) and why would you want to restrict your after school job search to Limerick? You'll find a job in the medical or IT field quicker than most fields so your chances are good...but be open to spreading your net.

For you and others considering UL, I must tell you that it is a tough school. I've never had this much workload in my entire life and almost everyone I know in the school feels the same way. I did my first semester in National University of Ireland, Galway and it was quite intense but nothing compared to what i have had here so far. Interestingly, I'm loving the challenge, especially in modules I enjoy.

I'm really not actively looking for a job now as I think i'll go mental if i have to combine work and study at this rate. But you may be stronger and can handle it. To be honest, getting a job in Limerick isn't easy. I know a couple of international students actively searching and going for interviews but find it difficult landing something. Dublin has more opportunities but the downside is the higher rate of living. Everything boils down to determination though and I'm sure with constant pushing something will come up. The rate is €9.80 per hour.

Hi guys. I’m quite confused. I’ve been working for a while and recently got an admission this fall in dublin.
Already paid my fees

I intend to resign pretty soon(like april) for other reasons even. As regards the visa application much later, will a study leave letter from my company grant me more chances of securing the visa (based on economic ties) . Honestly I dunno what direction I should drive the resignation letter towards.

Thanks as I anticipate a response.

My people, I urgently need your advise.

I have an opportunity with offers to take Msc management practice or MBA in project mgmt. I urgently need reasons to consider any from the two considering various opportunities after the programme.

ICASNg and other experience team in Ireland, kindly help out.

Thanks.

Hi everyone, I just got admission for premaster this fall please when should I start the visa application.

People here aren't responding much again cause of the ill discretions of those they helped prior before now and when they got here, they turn wolves. Nigeria as a country needs spiritual cleansing. I have learnt my own bitter lessons too.

i must commend everyone who has given one information or the other to help pple in this platform.

i want to verify how much it costs to get an agent handle the application process for irish schools.(agent fee) . i work a tight schedule daily and might not have time to handle it my self

Mr Godwin... we all have our stories that should not deter us from doing good.

First I am not Godwin by name. I am not in any way deterring anyone here from helping. I once had that instinct too not until I learnt why Nigerians avoid other Nigerians in the diaspora like a plague. Truth is, I thank God I am alive after the sad experience. Wishing everyone here and those home success in their pursuits. I am just here to read now.
