Queen's University Belfast - QUB
speciality: Education

University life was great. The highlight was the students union and the courses were nearly seen as the extra bits. Teaching was very traditional, lecturer talking students trying furiously to take down notes. I’m sure computers would be more familiar now and would take away the stress. Computer science involved writing a program, leaving it in a pigeon hole and waiting a week to hopefully see a long scroll of green paper with the correct outcomes.
A brilliant experience though

My experience at Queen’s University Belfast has been very positive overall. The MSc in Educational Leadership offers well structured modules that connect theory with real practice, and most lecturers are approachable, supportive and open to discussion. The teaching style encourages critical thinking and reflection, which helped me grow quickly as an international student.

The campus environment is welcoming, with good library resources and plenty of quiet study spaces. I’ve also found the wider support services.
