AROUND CAMPUS
Queen's Quarter, named after the university, is the southernmost quarter in Belfast and as a student, you'll be spending a lot of your time in and around this area.
Not only is this quarter home to our university, but while you're not in lectures you can visit many of the amazing coffee shops, restaurants, museums or the Queen's Film Theatre.
We’re famed for our warm welcome and there’s a strong support network and sense of community on campus.
It won’t be long until you feel at home here. There’s plenty of ways to meet new friends, develop life skills and find support when you need it:
- Think of our Residential Life Team as your personal social secretaries; on-hand to introduce you to a heap of new friends through a programme of themed nights, quizzes, trips and more. They are also available with a cuppa and a listening ear as you adjust to student life.
- Why not check out the regular Student’s Union events or join one of 200+ Student societies and meet new people with similar interests?
- Or perhaps you need someone to talk to. Our Student Centre has a range of professional support available, from counselling to budgeting help.
- Plus, our accommodation is built around our campus communities which are designed to make you feel right at home and help you make friends too.
As a student in Belfast, you will likely want to make the most of your time here and see the sights around the city and beyond.
We have everything from World Heritage sites, real-world Game of Thrones locations you can visit, scenery that inspired Narnia and more.
If you're a student staying in Queen's Accommodation, our team will organise a full calendar of events and trips allowing you to explore all that Belfast and Northern Ireland has to offer.
