What Our Students Say
Joyanne Njuguna | BSc Computer Science and Information Technology
I visited the campus and I was just in love with the greenery and the amount of space there was. That really attracted me to Galway. I consider Galway home now. I go back home and I feel like I’m missing something. Being a student and the freedom. I really love that about Galway. The people make it worth it. It allows me to think differently. You are given a problem and you are expected to come up with a solution. It challenges me.
