Queen's University Belfast - QUB (reviews)

I began my Masters in September 2021 and I am enjoying the city and course so far. The module conveners are very helpful and knowledgeable and dedicate a lot of their time to ensure you are understanding the topics.
The course was similar to what I expected, however, I did anticipate more hands-on work and less theory. Also, there were not many opportunities for class bonding, but due to COVID I understand the difficulties.
Overall, if you are aiming to do a PHD after I would definitely recommend it to a friend, if not, you could probably do without it.

Very on hands teaching and exclusively on campus. Discussion is encouraged in class which creates a great environment! Teaching staff is interested in the material and encouraging! Facilities are great, including the graduate school.

The programme is well spread and touches all the verticals of the Electronic domain. Starting from fabrication to programming, they cover all the aspects of electronics.
The professors are well qualified and do their part with high efficiency. The syllabus is very precise and targets the current market needs. Moreover, the labs are flawless, and the sessions provide hands-on simulation as well as fabrication of sensors.

Whether the university is for you or not depends a lot on the field of study you are pursuing. For international students, the value for money doesn’t live right up to the expectations. Would recommend for people that prefer a peaceful experience and would like to avoid the hassle of a major metropolitan city. Belfast is a great city… the architecture is beautiful however the nightlife leaves you wanting more.

I am currently studying bachelors biomedical science at Queen’s. My course is very hands-on and requires a lot of practical and lab-based work. Queen’s has made sure to provide my course mates and I the best of facilities and equipment to help make this experience more comfortable and understandable. The Medical and biology building is very well structured and it is almost impossible to get lost. The doctors and professors are very approachable and they have good knowledge regarding their subject. They make sure to explain every detail and entertain all kinds of questions, no matter the hour. Although the weather in Belfast may not be ideal throughout the year, the people are very welcoming and the warm. Even more, Queen’s has many facilities to help make university life better. In terms of student life, Belfast is an excellent place. Away from the bustling city with services matching them. It is a very student-friendly city and is safe. I live at walking distance from the campus and my accommodation is very reasonable and affordable compared to living expenses in big cities like London. Apart from this, Belfast has many wonderful places to visit for a weekend getaway’s and tourists. I would definitely recommend Queen’s and Belfast to students who are looking to apply and be a part of this family.

The education experience so far has been above par. The degree which I am currently pursuing has been well up to my expectations. However, the course is very vast, more practical involvement would help make it intelligible. Student life in Belfast is comparatively more affordable than big cities like London and Manchester. Although, the university does need small upgrades to live up to the current state of affairs regarding career prospects. Overall, the university and its system is well put down and of good quality. I would definitely recommend other people to apply to Queen’s.

Overall good
Should have parking facilities for its students.
Cheaper coffee and food available and also microwaves available for students to use.
Good facilities and technology
Would recommend for studying nursing
