DCU Open Day
On Friday the 16th of November, we departed the school at 9:30 and headed to DCU. We were all given maps of the campus and a timetable for all the talks. We arrived at 10:30 so that meant I missed the sports science and health talk I wanted to see at the start but I didn't mind as I got to see it, there is a lot more science than I thought there would be in that particular course, mostly biology. The second that I went to with Pierce and Alex was the marketing, innovation and technology talk, which was super interesting and wasn't too long which was also good. It was around lunchtime so we decided to go to Spar to eat. After lunch we thought it would be nice to go to another talk although we didn't have enough time to go to the hour long law and society talk, so we decided to go to the psychology talk which was half the time. When the talk had finished we rushed back to the bus to make sure we wouldn't have been late. All in all the DCU open day was hugely successful in showing me what universities are like and it also showed me what some of the courses are like.
