St Mary's College of Education

You don't have to arrange it yourself, you can do it with the help of your tutor. You better pick out some courses and go to your tutor. He will arrange contacts for you. But it takes some time...

They arranged everything pretty good.

The history courses given by Peter Collins and Brian Feeney are great. I'm very interested in history and I could listen to them for hours. I heard the same positive comments on their teaching from my fellow Erasmus students. Other classes were sometimes rather boring, but if you ask so, I think you can arrange your own timetable and put in the subjects you find interesting. Somehow we managed to do so :) My mentor was Frank Quinn. The man never had much time, but he was always there for us when we needed him and he was extremely nice. The library is very accessible and the computer-lab is well equipped. Being in Northern-Ireland you should also take a religion course, just to see how it's given there. The difference between their view on religion and ours in Belgium is striking.

The only thing that was not convenient was the fact that we arrived in the middle of a term and left in the middle of another one. That way we weren't able to follow courses from start to end.

We had only 3 weeks of courses in a periode of 12 weeks. I found it to less.

The courses are comparable to school classes. It's really different from a German University.
