On this episode of the TeamDCU podcast, our host, Sinead McCrohan, chats with Enda Owens who is a third year, Sport Science and Health student at DCU. 

Enda talks about the reason why he chose to pursue Sport Science and Health and the crucial role of INTRA in this career field.

"Make an informed choice in your CAO. Do the research. Talk to a student and talk to a lecturer. Find and email the people you need to talk to. And the last big thing would be, before any course you do, consider yourself wrong. Be open to new ideas and think of how you're going to develop on this course and go from there."

Host Sinead McCrohan talks to John Kirwan, a third year student in Applied Language and Translation Studies.

'I chose this course specifically because I really wanted to just give all of my attention to language studies in their essence, and not do something like business with the language, or maybe journalism with the language. 'They're great options as well. But I knew this was the one for me in that sense.

'The processes of translating and even interpreting and learning about those things really interested me as well,' he said.

John is also very involved in clubs and societies in DCU, and discusses life on campus.
