Description

Dublin has a wide range of health care opportunities for pre-medical students, as well as those interested in nursing, public health, rehabilitation, pharmacy, health services, and therapy.

With a rich heritage dating back hundreds of years, the city boasts many landmarks and monuments, among them castles, cathedrals and manor houses. Dublin is a diverse city offering a range of activities form bustling shopping districts and a vibrant nightlife to a rich history in the arts and literature - not to mention it has more green space than any other European capital!
