“Exceptional experience”

Ireland, Graduate
Business Studies, 2020
OverallI decided to go to Smurfit to complete my masters this time last year. It was such an intimate year where I got to know each and every student in my class of 40, but also every professor and tutor I encountered. Every student is given so much attention and I feel enlightened after finishing my course.

Personal comments
I lived in Merville Residence with three other exchange students. We each had our own bedrooms, which was nice. The flat was the perfect size, with two bathrooms, a living room, and a kitchen.
