Great historic place to visit with story of 180 years. Interesting architecture and vivid spirit of education through generations.
Open Day (Maths & Physics) The campus is stunning – gorgeous Victorian architecture, spotless grounds, and a very well-organised open day with food trucks, giant board games, and even guided tours of the student accommodation. The Maths and Physics talks were interesting, and the lecturers seemed passionate, but the Physics labs felt underwhelming, especially compared to Maynooth University. The biggest disappointment was the rigid entry policy. The Head of Enrolment repeated that “you cannot study physics without physics,” which may sound logical, but it ignores the reality that many Irish schools don’t have physics teachers – meaning bright, motivated students are excluded through no fault of their own. Other universities in the Republic of Ireland are more flexible, accepting students with two science subjects and higher-level maths. Queen’s might want to rethink this if they truly want to attract wider talent. Beautiful place, well-run event – but the narrow mindset left a sour note.
A stunning building set beside a spacious park perfect for strolling. The visit to the botanical garden was captivating, especially the remarkable variety of roses in bloom.
Stunning campus, easily the most beautiful I’ve seen, right by the gardens and river as well. Excellent facilities and curriculum. Will gladly support or guest lecture if there is ever a desire.
It's one of the most noticeable buildings you will see in Belfast. It's a prestigious, well known, and research driven university. I was impressed with red-brick building, massive campus, and well maintained garden. During our Belfast visit we went to see the university but it was closed as it was weekend. But definitely worth visiting and it's a popular attraction among tourists.
I have always wanted to visit Queen’s University. Although I’m not a student here it was a pleasure to visit such a magnificent university with rich history and great architecture . We stroll around the university as a tourist and had a great time. It was quiet as it was a weekend during our visit! Beautiful!
I visited Belfast for a weekend gateway. Qe wandered around the whole complex on Sunday morning. Hardly anyone on the ground. Such a beautiful architecture. Not to be missed if you come to Belfast.
We photographed Jacob and Camilles wedding here this past year and it was simply stunning. They had their wedding portraits in front of the amazing facade of the main building followed by a quick visit to Botanic Gardens just around the corner. The main hall is so grand but able to accommodate any style of wedding!
Really nice campus and well worth a walk around. Easy to park close to on the weekends when it's a little less busy and close to the Botanical gardens which is well worth a visit too.
I didn't attend this university. I'm just like a tourist sharing an honest review of my visit. The buildings are beautiful as many people have described. Of course, not the modern way of beautiful but old enough to remain a modern-day-to-refer Beauty. I assume the most beautiful part of the university is the entrance area... That's its identity. You can smell that by the way many graduating students take snapshots there. Well, I don't really know about Queen's University's academic prowess but I think many of the students I see around look happy... This isn't a fact but it probably tells how good the university is. By the way, the people of Belfast are lovely and friendly. Hence, I believe this should extend to this university. Students should confirm this. In short, it's a good place to see if you're in Belfast. I hope this is helpful.
