4/5 Kauri M. 3 years ago on Google
I
studied
in
this
university
for
5
years
from
2014
-
2019,
and
what
an
excellent
education
I
received
here.
I
graduated
with
a
1:1
Bachelors
of
Agricultural
science
degree
(Specialising
in
Horticulture
and
Landscape
mgt)
OK
WELL...
Educational
facilities,
e.g
laboratories,
classrooms,
computer
rooms,
tutorials,
studios,
Library,
ag
testing
sites....are
next
level,
1st
class
++++
Educational
staff:
A++
were
really
great,
very
helpful,
understanding,
good
presenters,
extremely
knowledgeable,
links
with
Industry
etc...
Course
content:
very
thorough,
applicable
to
industry
A+
Campus:
B-..........A
lot
of
people
complain
about
the
campus,
but
tbh
its
very
green,
well
maintained,
two
lakes,
open
air,
safe,
bright.
My
only
gripe
would
be
there
are
not
enough
places
to
hang
out/congregate!!
its
almost
too
big,
in
a
weird
way
XD
Club
&
Societies-
A+++
Absolutely
incredible.
i
got
really
involved
with
the
mountaineering
club,
Horticulture
society
and
rowing
team
too
:)
so
much
to
offer,
they
add
so
much
value,
easy
way
to
meet
new
people!!!
amazing
fun.
Social
life:
GRADE
C......I
found
it
really
difficult
to
meet
new
friends
here
(and
I
know
many
many
others
that
did)...i
really
had
a
hard
time
integrating
and
i'm
not
a
shy,
or
introverted
person
at
all.
Although
I
met
many
people
I
only
made
like
2
real
friends
in
4
years
which
is
kinda
dissapointing.
I
was
so
desperate
to
fit
in,
but
I
never
could,
I
still
dunno
why
to
this
day.
Many
of
my
friends
went
to
TCD,
DCU
and
trinity
made
so
many
new
friends
and
life
long
friends...but
there
is
something
about
UCD
that
makes
it
hard
to
make
real
friends.
In
the
first
3
months,
lots
of
people
form
a
clique
that
they
stick
with
for
the
next
4
years
and
if
you
aren't
in
a
clique
by
then,
well
then
good
luck.
I
knew
a
lot
of
lonely
people
here,
some
even
dropped
out
because
of
it.
I
mean
I
was
very
lonely
for
periods
in
UCD.
The
bar
at
UCD,
isn't
much
craic
at
all,
got
a
weird
layout
and
pretty
small
for
the
size
of
UCD.
it
was
the
last
day
on
campus,
and
they
were
playing
live
music
and
everyone
was
standing
there
like
fools.
So
it
ended
being
just
me
and
two
punk
guys
that
danced
XD
beer
is
expensive
too,
like
regular
prices.
(DONT
GET
ME
WRONG,
You
will
be
friendly
and
have
'uni
friends'
yes,
but
long
term
mates,
outside
of
campus,
im
not
sure)
This
really
is
my
only
gripe,
which
is
why
I
give
it
4
stars
instead
of
4!!!
BUT
STILL,
VERY
GRATFEFUL
FOR
MY
EDUCATION
HERE,
and
it
was
a
fantastic
experience
all
the
same.
I
leave
you
with
a
great
photo
from
HORTICULTURE
SOCIETY
(Which
I
managed
for
2
years)
and
mountaineering
party
and
Rosemount,
!
I
am
gonna
be
an
Alumni
in
a
few
years
after
I
make
my
millions
in
Agriculture,
thanks
everyone
at
UCD.
