    My course allowed me to work on real-life projects. My favourite was the redesign of the Strand Road campus estate, as part of the Project Based Learning Awards. My group’s work was selected as one of the winning projects!

    Red Quote marks
    We represented Ireland at the 2024 Summer Paralympic Games, and one of our proudest moments was when we received a guard of honour from NWRC staff and students when we returned to the College to host a Q&A masterclass on Sport Psychology.

  • Media student in a wheelchair in front of green screen with tv cameras, holding a clapper
    Red Quote marks
    I've won 11 awards at independent film festivals, including Best Director and Best Short Film. The support I received at NWRC gave me the confidence to pursue my passion.

    Red Quote marks
    I got a lot of support at NWRC. I enjoy college life more than school because it offers greater freedom and you are treated like an adult.
    Cian Fleming (Business)
  • female graduate smiling
    Red Quote marks
    I was given so many opportunities, such as producing the college’s first ever official podcast, Talk NWRC. After graduation I got my first job as a Marketing Assistant with a local PR agency!

  • Female tiler leans against a wall with yellow and blue tiles
    Red Quote marks
    I’m the only female in the class but I didn’t let this stop me from pursuing something out of my comfort zone. Tiling is a very creative trade so I curbed my hesitations by leaning on my background in Fine Art. This has helped me see things in a way others may not.
    Rebecca Gavigan (Wall & Floor Tiling)
  • Female paramedic stands with arms crossed in front of yellow ambulance
    Red Quote marks
    I wanted better job opportunities and the Access course gave me the pathway towards the career I’ve always dreamed of. It was quite daunting returning to college but I found all the staff at Strabane campus really helpful and friendly. They made the experience so enjoyable.
    Elaine Mythen (Health & Welfare)
  • male actor with long hair stands on stage surrounded by others
    Red Quote marks
    I played the part of Jesus in the college’s 2024 production of Superstar Live. The audition was intense, but I had a feeling I got the part as I had the right physical look. It was such a brilliant experience performing in front of a live audience!
    Joshua Miller (Performing Arts)
