Testimonial:

Sakshi Anand, Research Assistant, University College Dublin,

Opting for the Environmental Technology programme at UCD was a straightforward choice due to its extensive curriculum addressing environmental challenges with a focus on sustainability and practical applications. 

My experience involved creating educational materials, technical reports, attending seminars, workshops, and engaging in practical projects, ideal for career progression and transitions. 

The programme aligned with my goals in environmental consultancy, offering insights into environmental protection, data analysis, and project management using tools like Life Cycle Analysis and Risk Assessment. It prepared me for my role on the EU-funded BioBeo project, contributing to education on the circular bioeconomy. I highly recommend this programme for its exceptional curriculum, distinguished faculty, and excellent career prospects.
