“UCD’s well designed MSc Environmental Technology curriculum covering pertinent topics such as air, water, soil, biodiversity, abatement techniques, management, and ethics offered me a well-rounded education. The programme allowed me to cultivate a skill set that enhanced my capability to serve mother nature in a professional manner. Since UCD fosters a culture of learning, innovation and discipline, my pursuit of higher education at UCD serves as an imperative steppingstone to accomplish these goals. Not only has it broadened my knowledge, but it has also helped me secure a job opportunity in Irish Rail as a graduate environmental engineer and utilise my skills in my professional life. ”
