A common opinion that I came across during my education was:

“Learn the material off, get the piece of paper, but don’t worry you’ll never use any of it”.

In the case of Dublin Business School and the course outline they proved this concept false. I am surprised every day at how much I put into practice the knowledge I gained during my four years at DBS.

In my current position as OEM Operations and Programs Manager within the Irish subsidiary in Microsoft, I am grateful for the hours I spent in IT classes with Bernadette Higgins understanding how to use excel to my advantage. 

I firmly believe Dublin Business School has many advantages over other academic facilities. The two I rank highest would be the lecturers and the small class sizes.

In my opinion the lecturers make DBS what is. They embody a fantastic mixture of real world knowledge and academic backgrounds. In my experience they not only take the time to get to know you but they genuinely want you to succeed, and are more than happy to meet out of class and support you in any way they can.

The smaller class sizes allow you to become more involved in the course and encourages interaction with fellow pupils and your lecturers, which I found invaluable. It also gives lecturers the opportunity to spend more one on one time with you if needed, which ensures that you don’t get lost in the crowd

After my wonderful experience and everything I gained during my four your years I would never hesitate to recommend the DBS experience to anyone.
