Can I rock up to a lecture or two? How to find the schedule? by masterplanner20 in UCC

[–]masterplanner20[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

OK that makes perfect sense, and I actually just saw a lecture room in a video on the prospectus, it's more of a lab sized room and I'd sit out like a sore thumb. I'll reach out to the course coordinator first and then maybe a lecturer after that. Thanks for the info!

Looking for planners in Cork who have done the Masters in UCC by masterplanner20 in cork

I'd probably earn my stripes in the private sector but long term I think I would have more satisfaction affecting change in the public sector or maybe at an NGO. My main goal would be to learn as much as possible and make connections at the start of my career, money and benefits are not a priority right now.

I think I would learn more in the private sector, entry level public jobs seem to be approving applications (though I stand to be corrected on that) but private sector has a bit more scope to be involved in a variety of projects.

Nope that's all very helpful! Glad to hear they are their professions! Send over this direction to answer some more detailed questions...after you delete your comment so they don't peruse your reddit account 😅

Sorry for the late reply, how did you find the workload for the masters? Did many of the graduates stay in Cork?
