Speaking with The Free Press Journal about the current trends, Barry O'Driscoll, Regional Manager, India & South Asia for Education in Ireland, highlighted that while STEM remains the dominant choice, there is a growing effort to promote programmes outside of these technical fields.
FPJ: Why is the STEM sector the dominant choice for Indian students in Ireland?
Barry O'Driscoll: The courses in high demand at the postgraduate level include STEM subjects, particularly computing, data analytics, and data science. On the business side, we see a lot of MBA, management, and marketing students, while engineering programmes cover software, mechanical, industrial, and civil engineering. These fields remain popular among Indian students because of their clear career prospects and the high demand for technical skills in the job market.
FPJ: While STEM is popular, Is Ireland looking to attract students for other disciplines?
