Ireland has a long history of welcoming international students and in recent years it has become a quality education destination; as it renders a worthwhile future that assures an established career for all students. Popular for its integrated education which is designed in a way that basic fundamentals are not missed out while learning the advanced concepts and equipping students with both theoretical and practical knowledge, all of Ireland’s universities are ranked in the top 5% globally.

Mr. Barry O’Driscoll, Senior Education Adviser, India – Education in Irelandquotes, “India has been an influential market in terms of both trade and international students export for Ireland. Many students who aspire for receiving higher-education in foreign countries are now being aware of Ireland providing globally recognized degrees & courses, benefits of working part-time and a 24 month stay back option has contributed to the rising the education exports.”

In the recent years the most popular courses in Ireland have included mechanical engineering, electronic engineering, biotechnology, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, data analytics, cyber security, accounting / finance and MBA. Also, there has been a notable increase in the level of interest in courses such as media, design, arts, social sciences, hospitality and hotel management.

One of the major reasons why Indian students are heading to Ireland is a host of scholarships that are offered by education institutions. Today, over 200 scholarships are available for aspiring Indian students at higher level either undergraduate or postgraduate studies.

For students who are determined to polish their skills and grow both, professionally and personally, Education in Ireland is organizing educational fairs wherein globally recognized Institutes from Ireland will speak on a variety courses, opportunities and scholarships that are available coming from wide range of Irish sources. The fair will be conducted in Bengaluru at The Taj MG Road Hotel on October 12 from 11 am to 4 pm, where 20 Irish Institutes will be present to address, discuss, respond to queries, speak about programmes available, intakes, offer acceptance, campus life, accommodation, international student support, culture and more.

I suggest parents and students should visit the Education in Ireland fairs to find out more!“ adds Mr. O’Driscroll, who will be present at the fairs to have face-to-face interaction with the students.

 A key advantage of studying in Ireland is that students can avail of up to two years ‘stay-back’ option after completing their course, at postgraduate level. This guarantees students the opportunity to remain in Ireland for a period of one year to seek employment in dynamic sectors such as ICT, biopharma, engineering, medical devices, food science and financial services. The possibility of gaining valuable post-study work experience, makes Ireland a very compelling option for the Indian students. With over 1,000 multinationals based in Ireland, the country offers exciting career opportunities for talented graduates.

India has always invested in education with a strong sense of the ROI- which in simple terms means the career boost against their graduation. In this matter Ireland has time and again proved its track record and has seen a notable growth of 86% in international student exports in Ireland. 

The country also offers a buzzing, multicultural society where students will certainly find the highest of education standards and warmest of welcomes and is well known as being a safe, welcoming society.
