You can definitely apply to finance-related master’s programs in Ireland, and Ireland is a strong option because of the presence of major global financial firms in Dublin, including investment banks, fintech companies, and asset management firms. That said, since most master’s programs in Ireland are only 1 year in duration, traditional long-term internships are less common compared to countries where programs run for 2 years. Instead, many universities structure their programs with industry projects, consulting assignments, dissertation projects with companies, or shorter placement opportunities that give you practical exposure. So yes, Ireland offers good finance opportunities, finding programs that have internships as part of the curriculum may be difficult.
