DCU students appointed Education in Ireland Student Ambassadors

Logan White and Megan Herrold, both from Nebraska, have been selected as Student Ambassadors for Dublin City University. A new initiative by Education in Ireland, the Student Ambassador Programme is aimed at raising awareness of the quality of Irish degree and Study Abroad programmes, while also assisting and encouraging interested foreign students as they embark on their applications. Ireland is a popular destination for American students – the ninth most popular destination in the world because of our worldwide reputation for high quality education and our reputation for offering the warmest of welcomes to students from all over the world.

The current batch of Ambassadors come from 16 States in the US and represent all seven Irish universities. Throughout the academic year, the Student Ambassadors share their experience and insights of life as a student in Ireland through blogs, articles and video posts - connecting prospective American students and their families with those already studying in Ireland. When these students return home they will, from time to time, work with Education in Ireland and the Irish universities at promotional events in their area.

Education in Ireland is a government initiative aimed at promoting Irish higher education and English language schools overseas.
