Sociology
Studying Sociology in this Department was the best learning Experience I have ever had

Studying Sociology in this Department was the best learning Experience I have ever had. Of course, Sociology is a great subject, so learning it in any university is a fruitful experience. However, there are many factors that made my experience in Maynooth exceptional. 
 
As a mature student, you would like to be treated like an adult. In this Department there is an equal and friendly relationship between lecturers and students. The lecturers always have time for students—even when they are really busy. For me, the great atmosphere in this Department also made it a very enjoyable place in which to study and spend time.
 
Another feature this Department is the range of topics that are taught. I was so pleased to see so much choice in front of me: from Sociology of Tourism to Religion to Sexuality to Revolutions to Media, and the list goes on! This variety of subjects drives students to niche topics about which they are passionate.
 
There are many factors such as the topics covered, the management of the Department, and the teaching methods that made learning Sociology in Maynooth an unforgettable experience. In the end all I can say is that Sociology rocks!
