    I'm looking for the best computing course in Ireland, so far I have heard that:
    Applied Computing in WIT : Good and supposedly has a good reputation in Ireland.
    Computer Science in UCD : Great supposedly the best computing course in Ireland.
    Computer Science in DIT : Good, second to UCD.
    Computer Science and Software Engineering in NUI, Maynooth: Great but probably hardest course in Ireland.
    Computer Science in TCD: Good but lots of work.
    Computer in UCC: Bad.
    If I missed out on any college, put it in and share your opinion, would be nice.

    There is really no such thing as the best computing course in Ireland. They all offer different ways of learning computers, you don't just learn everything about computers in a course that lasts 4 years. For example, a course in college A could offer more in Web development while College B offers more software coding.

    DkIT? I've heard that they've put in a new computer lab consisting of iMacs. Was opened last year or so. May be worth a look?

    You're looking for the "best computing course in Ireland" yet you dismiss DCU?

    Where did you hear bad things about it ? If you heard it from another college its probably fake.

    Its the largest and most recognised computing course in Ireland - fact

    Your right @SureYWouldntYa , I did another investigation and DCU does have a good reputation in Ireland.
