At Queen’s you’ll have access to facilities that bring your course to life. Our constantly evolving campus has received over £700million in funding to make it future ready.
From the state of the art McClay Library, to the cutting edge Computer Science Building, and purpose built School of Law, including a Moot Court Room, our teaching facilities have transformed our historic campus into an innovative learning environment for our exceptional students.
I chose Queen’s because I liked the prospect of exploring somewhere I’ve never been before. Belfast is very student-orientated; there are regularly student discounts. With the GB scholarship, I’m saving just under £2,000 per year. The people at Â鶹ÒùÔº and Northern Ireland in general are extremely friendly and genuine.James Hadley-Piggin, Devon

A university that looks good on your C.V.
It might be strange to think of life after University! But a degree from Queen’s really is the starting point to a lifetime of career achievement.
93% of Queen’s graduates were in employment and/or further study 15 months after completing their course (HESA Graduate Outcomes, 2022/23).
We have a dedicated Career Guidance Team, a Future-Ready Award scheme which recognises and accredits Queen’s students for the personal initiative and a range of study or work abroad opportunities.
"I benefited from being taught by world-class professors, and my time was enhanced by getting stuck-in outside of class. From roles running the History Society to my time as Equality Officer for NUS-USI, or hours spent debating in the Literary & Scientific Society, to founding an anti-slavery group, it was an incredible few years."
