Is it possible to survive after completing masters in Ireland?
24 Aug 2026 · Answered by Mona Negi · 1 min read
Yes, it is possible to build a stable life in Ireland after completing your master's degree.
Ireland offers a post-study work visa (Stamp 1G) that allows you to work full-time for up to 24 months after graduation. This gives you time to find a job and gain local experience. The job market is strong in sectors like technology, pharmaceuticals, and finance, and entry-level salaries are generally sufficient to cover living expenses.
Monthly living costs typically range from €1,264 to €2,445, depending on your lifestyle and location. With a job, most graduates manage these expenses comfortably.
