Testimonies
"I completed my BSc in Earth and Ocean Science at the University of Galway and decided to pursue a master’s to sharpen my career focus and deepen my knowledge in environmental science. The MA in Environmental Leadership stood out because of its diverse range of modules and its interactive learning environment, thanks to small class sizes and engaging lecturers.
"After completing my master’s, I joined MKO’s graduate program, eventually securing a full-time role as an Environmental Scientist—my dream job. If you’re thinking about a master’s, attending the Postgraduate Open Day is a must. It’s the perfect opportunity to connect with lecturers, explore programmes, and start shaping your future,” -- Natalia Stolarska, University of Galway graduate and environmental scientist at MKO, Galway.
"As an undergraduate, I studied Law (BCL ), Criminology, and Criminal Justice because it combined all my interests into one course. Continuing to a master’s level felt like a natural next step, and the LLM in Criminology, Criminal Justice, and Human Rights has been incredible.
"With expert lecturers, guest speakers, and engaging events, this programme has been both inspiring and practical. Teaching tutorials for undergraduates has also been a rewarding experience, and I am excited to start my new role as a Knowledge Management and Legal Researcher at the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions after completing my studies. Attending the Postgraduate Open Day helped me decide this was the right path. Meeting approachable lecturers and having my questions answered made all the difference.
"If you are considering postgraduate studies, don’t miss this chance—it might just be the start of something amazing," -- Emily Donnellan, current student of LLM in Criminology, Criminal Justice, and Human Rights.
