University of Limerick or University College Dublin

Question

Hello anyone who can help me with advice. I have an admit for MSc in Software Engineering at University of Limerick. Should I defer for 1 year and try at UCD? I applied very late this year and deadline for UCD gets over in December itself. Does it impact in the long term with future employers and networking?

University of Limerick has stronger Industry links and their course content is more real-world focused.

UCD is more prestigious academically and from a name recognition perspective.

Really would depend on what you are prioritising from the masters. Former UL grad here would recommend them.

Long term, the university isn't going to matter. It might have a small impact in the short term, but I'd suggest just going now and not waiting for the 1 year deferral.
