NUI Galway will hold its second spring open day for students considering applying or those who have already applied to the university, and for their parents or guardians. The event will be held on Saturday April 24, from 10am to 3pm at the NUI Galway Campus. The inaugural spring open day took place last year and over 3,000 students and their parents registered on the day.
Lecturers and students will be on hand to provide information on a full range of programmes offered, as well as practical issues such as university accommodation, scholarships, and general support services available to students. Student ambassadors will also be on hand to answer all queries about student life at NUI Galway.
A programme of taster sessions will also run throughout the day, designed to give a real insight into university life featuring demos with the latest gadgets including X-Boxes, Lego Mindstorm kits, and interactive science experience workshops. Also highly recommended is the Student Life Talk and the Focus on your Career Talk.
Tours of the campus on the day will give an insight into university life, and the top class facilities offered at NUI Galway, including the €22 million sports complex. The centre’s facilities include an international standard swimming pool, a national league basketball arena, 100 piece cardiovascular gym, an elite training gym for professional athletes and a climbing wall. Tours of student accommodation will also be available to visitors on the day.
