Developing your abilities for a career in business is not just about reading books and memorising information: a business education is about learning and experiencing how business operates in the real world; it's about studying together, learning from each other and inspiring each other; it's also about technology and understanding its place in the real world of business.
That's why small group learning is a key philosophy at UCD Quinn School. Average class sizes are generally 30 to 50 students, ensuring you have greater involvement in lectures and lively discussions with lecturers and your fellow students.
Teamwork is promoted among students through group projects and assignments and our small classes offer you the ideal platform for learning other key business skills such as presentation and organisational skills.
Rather than having a straightforward lecture, class participation encourages learning and improves your communication skills. Simulate real-life business scenarios, make presentations, conduct research, analyse theories, test your decision-making abilities and then observe the consequences of your decisions. It's a great way to learn and it shows you, as closely as possible, how business operates in the real world.
