Student Testimonials

As a working professional, I appreciated the flexibility of coursework that the MEng program granted. I was able to focus on topics that were of interest to me and highly relevant to my engineering career, as well as broaden my skill set. This has allowed me to take on new projects at work that I otherwise may not have been involved in had I not had the exposure in the UCD MEng program. Even with COVID and the campus shut down, I still felt like I was part of a community. The faculty were excellent, and all very well versed in their fields and always willing to help.
