It is a pleasure to welcome
you, all new students, especially those who come from abroad, with open arms at
our beloved campus. Inspired by the spirit of hospitality and friendliness, the
Dublin Insight magazine enthusiastically introduces you to good vibes in Dublin
City University (DCU), the city of Dublin and Ireland. Just to let you know,
the magazine is a project conducted by students of “Media and Communication
Skills” class and targets recently arrived international students as the main
readers.
The universities within the
city, like DCU, have lots of opportunities to develop your studies as well as
your other interests. There are numerous workshops related to your studies that
you can do, for example. DCU’s events on culture, sport and entertainment are frequented
by people from all types such as, dignitaries, ordinary citizens and the
students themselves. Students accommodation, managing finance and the unique
Inter Faith Centre are covered here as well.
Not only will you get to
know DCU life, but you will also discover Dublin and Ireland. Steeped in
history and buzzing with youthful energy, Dublin is at the very heart of Irish
culture. Becoming accustomed to Dublin’s means of transportation will no doubt
help you find out more about the city. In terms of entertainment, Dublin offers
you the chance to experience it on a new level due to the presence of numerous
theatres and cinemas offering wonderful services. Furthermore, Ireland’s
captivating natural scenery and cultural charms attract a significant number of
tourists.
Well, it is all up to
yourself now to experience it. By the time you have worked out and explored
things we mentioned, you will probably say to yourself or others, ‘I came, I
saw, I conquered.’ We hope so!
Good luck!
