“Having always had a passion for the environment, specifically water sciences, I knew the MEngSc degree at UCD was the perfect course to further develop my knowledge and equip me with the skills to succeed in my career. Having worked for many years following graduating from my undergraduate degree, I took the time to carefully choose the best master’s that would help me reach my goal of working in the water industry. The Water, Waste and Environmental Engineering master’s degree at UCD is a challenging and thoroughly rewarding course, which covers a variety of subject matters taught through lectures, tutorials, and labs. Gaining an engineering context to my previous scientific studies has significantly enhanced my knowledge and understanding of water sciences.”
