School Liaison Service
At MDI we appreciate that choosing a course to study and where to study is a difficult yet important decision. Today there are hundreds of courses to choose from and there are many factors to consider when selecting the course for you.
The course (content, duration, availability, career options, points), college location and costs (food, accommodation, entertainment) are perhaps 3 of the most important factors to consider.
How can we help?
At MDI we provide advice and support to all prospective students and their parents interested in finding out more about a career in teaching and the opportunities available from studying Arts.
Our Undergraduate Prospectus for 2010/2011 entry is a good starting point for information.
We aim to support prospective students in making informed career choices through:
- School Visits
- Career Exhibitions
- Campus Visits
- School Visits Programme
We are available to visit schools to provide information on programmes available to students. We also attend career exhibitions and information evenings in schools and other learning centres.

MDI participates at a variety of careers exhibitions and events, both locally and nationwide. At each exhibition you will have an opportunity to meet either staff and/or students of the Institute who will be able to assist you with your queries.
4. Campus Visits
There is no better way to find out about student life than to make a personal visit. We offer prospective students and parents the opportunity to visit our college and speak with some of our students and academic staff.
You can also take a tour of the campus with one of our Student Ambassadors who will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
To arrange a campus visit, just give us a call, tell us which courses you are interested in and the dates you are available to come - its' that simple!
