Hi, my name is Charlotte and I'm going into my final year of English and History. In first year I lived in Elms BT2 which was a great location for going out and working in the city centre. Whilst at Queen's I've been a member of the QUB dance team. Through this I made loads of friends, kept fit and got to travel with the team for different competitions. In second year I became vice-president of the dance team which was a great opportunity. During my two years at Queen's I've studied two subjects I love whilst experiencing a great new city. It's a great university and location for learning, cultural sites and nights out.

Hi, my name is Róisín, I have just graduated with a first in a masters in Mechanical Engineering (within the School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering). For my first year, I lived in BT1 and then moved into private accommodation for the remainder of my degree. Whilst at Queen’s I joined the girl's Gaelic football team during my first and second year and then began volunteering at a homework club in the local area for my third and fourth year. During my whole time at Queens, I have been employed by the university to assist with tour guiding potential students, open days, and other promotional events which allowed me to fit working, around my studies. Instead of doing a year in industry I opted to do two summer internships with Jaguar Land Rover and have since secured a graduate role there. I have greatly enjoyed my time at Queen’s and living in Belfast has allowed me to experience` the friendly atmosphere of the city and make lifelong friends.

Hi, my name is Jon and I'm a third year French and Spanish student, from the Wirral, England. During my first year of study I lived in BT2 accommodation and during my time at Queen's, I have served as Secretary of the Spanish and Portuguese Society. With my languages, I am about to start a placement teaching English in the south of France. I am looking forward to my year away as it offers me a chance to improve my language skills, as well as immersing myself in a new culture. I am loving my time at Queen's as the combination of a welcoming and friendly university and a vibrant city offers students like myself an unforgettable experience, shaping me for the world outside of education.

Hi! My name's Emily and I'm a second year biological sciences student from Cumbria, England. I lived in Elms BT1 in first year and now live in a student house with four of my closest friends. I joined the squash club in first year which has been the highlight of my university experience so far, and now work as the club's treasurer. I am going into professional studies next year where I aim to work in conservation research overseas and in the UK. I am loving my course, and the non-stop Belfast social scene. I can't imagine studying anywhere else!

Hi, my name is Christopher, and I am a 5th year dental student from England. During my first year, I lived in BT9 (Elm’s Village) and throughout my time at university, I was a student ambassador for the University giving prospective students tours around the campus, as well as being a Year representative to help facilitate discussions between the Dental School and my class. Queen’s provides many opportunities for students to learn. For instance, after 3rd year I completed a summer studentship that was used to help train students in their clinical dental years. I feel the university and its staff are friendly, approachable, and want to help you learn whilst enjoying your time studying here.
