Student Comments





When choosing a university, Queen’s and the Archaeology-Palaeoecology Department stood out because of the focus on environmental archaeology. … I have felt nothing but welcomed since arriving in Belfast and the department has played a major role in this … There is not one bit of me that regrets choosing Queen’s and I would recommend it to any prospective student, international or domestic.

I work with the National Trust at Mount Stewart House as Conservation Learning Assistant. ... My time in Arc-Pal at Queen’s was the most fun I’ve ever had but my degree also taught me the skills that I use every day in my job. ... All the information we provide at Mount Stewart has to be researched and verified, and I simply wouldn’t be able to do this had I not gained the necessary skills at university.
