Can you tell me if I will get placement support and internship support from the universities since I want to settle abroad after my masters in Ireland/Canada?

Yes, you can count on real placement and internship support from your university in both Ireland and Canada, and this matters directly for your settlement goal because landing a local job is the bridge to your post-study work permit and eventually permanent residency.

What career support looks like in each country

Turning university support into a settlement plan

• Use your career center's CV workshops and mock interviews early, since local hiring norms in Dublin and Toronto differ from what you may be used to.
• In Canada, target programs with a built-in co-op term, since these frequently convert into full-time offers before graduation.
• In Ireland, look for roles under the Critical Skills Employment Permit list, as employers there are more willing to sponsor you once your Stamp 1G is running.
• Once you have Canadian work experience on a PGWP, apply through Express Entry's Canadian Experience Class to move toward permanent residency.

My Advice

Pick your field of study first, then compare how each country's career office supports that specific field rather than choosing the country on climate or lifestyle alone. Book a call with the career services team of your shortlisted universities before you apply, and ask directly what percentage of last year's cohort in your program secured a placement.
