haha well, in my opinion, we spend A LOT of time on farm animals In your first year the spring semester is pretty much dominated by food animals in the nutrition, food animal systems, and reproduction modules. Then in your third year there are two semesters of public health which is basically more food animal stuff for an entire year, plus a separate herd health module, and cattle reproduction gets its own semester, while everything else is in lumped together in the second semester, etc. Also the large animal research that goes on at UCD is at the forefront of their fields ... the clinicians especially when you're on the rotations down in the hospital are amazing. I guess I called it obsessive because I'm a small animal person and it felt like a lot to me (not that I didn't enjoy it, I totally did! but Ireland is an agriculturally based country so they do emphasize it in their curriculum, which is a good thing). This is the website that describes the classes if you want more info on what I'm talking about:

I don't think the tuition has changed, I've paid €33,500/year since the beginning (that's for the 4 year program, I believe the 5 year program is like €28,200) and I'm pretty sure that's still the going rate
