    Hi, just wondering which would be a more prestigious degree- Medicinal chemistry or some sort of engineering(software/computer). I think Trinity is the only place for Medicinal Chemistry. And if engineering, what college would be best recognised?:confused:

    Why the **** would you waste your time responding to my question with a load of jibrish. It's of no relevence to my question that I can do a science course in a random college. Mayby you should read the question again(slowly this time) and ask yourself-can I provide any relevent info regarding medicinal chemistry in comparison to software engineering?wow...:some people are just stupid

    Prestige can be shoved up it's arse tbh.

    As for what college is best for Engineering, Trinity seems to start out as a very wide course and narrow in after a couple of years. It also seems to be a very very tough course with a very high workload according to the people I know who do it.

    More prestige doesn't mean better.

    Ok.

    ...Originally, prestige referred to pomposity, which was taken as a sign of poor taste. In this regard, the word had strictly negative connotations. Indeed, the root of the word "prestige" comes from the Latin præstigum, meaning a delusion or a trick.

    And some people have a whole heap of attitude which they would do well to leave aside if they wish to participate in this forum.

    Look in a mirror, tbh.

    Ayumi's first language is not English, yet she regularly contributes helpfully and generously to this forum. If she missed the thrust of your question on this occasion, big deal.

    Banned for three days, come back with a better attitude. Were it not that you are new, it would be longer.

    I suggest you read the Boards.ie FAQs in the interim.



    EDIT: Oh, and prestigious does not mean better, it means better-known / recognised ... they're not always the same thing by any means.
