BSc (Hons) Mathematics and Statistics, PhD in Statistics
I would recommend the School of Mathematical Sciences in UCD to prospective students; I found it to be a great place to study. At undergraduate level I had many classes with small groups which allowed a lot of interaction with lecturers and also made it easy to get to know other students.
My positive experiences as an undergraduate helped in making my decision to continue with postgraduate studies at UCD. The postgraduate research activities in the School of Mathematical Sciences are growing each year in academic strength and student numbers making it an ideal environment to do postgraduate research.
During my PhD I got to know many members of staff who were always invariably willing to help in different ways. The resources and opportunities made available to me during this period have proved invaluable.
I am now working as a Lecturer in Statistics in the Department of Mathematics at NUI Maynooth. Studying in UCD was challenging, rewarding and fun and it led me into the career that I am now very much enjoying.s.
