MSc Digital Marketing and Analytics

QUEEN'S UNIVERSITY BELFAST

Muaz - January 2026

Best aspects? The people here are super friendly, the campus is very welcoming and the student union is generally incredible. There are events happening all year round, so many different societies you can join and a little bit of something for everyone. Nightlife is NOT a thing tho in Belfast at least not in the way you traditionally think. Most places shut down by 2 but hey you can still have a great time until then. It's also a lot cheaper than other places in the UK. The education at least in the marketing program is genuinely world class and you get to work with companies that are already based in northern Ireland so you get a lot of exposure to companies that you could potentially work with in the future. There are also regular talks that are hosted by the university like any other one of course and it's great to hear experiences from alumni and current professionals.

How it could be improved? I would say there could always be a newsletter or something that you could subscribe to that could tell you all of the events that are happening maybe even one for specific types of students. Right now you have to manually decide to look up specific places on websites or on Instagram pages to know what's happening on campus so if you're not proactive, you'll straight up just miss things that are happening quite frequently. read full review

MSc Psychological Science

QUEEN'S UNIVERSITY BELFAST

Andrea - January 2026

The best so far has been my experience with Queen's staff members and Union (student officers) as they have been extremely helpful and supportive in terms of being successful in the job market, networking, and providing additional information when needed.

The worst has been how chaotic and fast paced it can feel, with modules changing on the day when weather conditions don't permit in person lectures and trying to find or receive video recordings on time, which is, however, quite understandable considering the given circumstances. read full review

MSc Psychological Science

QUEEN'S UNIVERSITY BELFAST

Rebecca - January 2026

I’ve really enjoyed my university experience overall. The facilities are excellent, and the events, location, and overall vibe create a positive and motivating environment to study in. One area that could be improved is clearer guidance and support around exams, as more structured and consistent communication would help reduce stress and boost confidence during assessment periods. read full review

Nursing and Midwifery PhD

QUEEN'S UNIVERSITY BELFAST

Sophie - January 2026

Support services: I have availed of these as I had a baby who was born early and had a cardiac arrest. QUB have been so supportive putting education plans in place to help me achieve my phd, weekly support with Megan at well being wednesdays, offering free counselling sessions. honestly the support has been unreal.

The students union really value and listen to the students and i can see them trying to make sure that voice is heard at all levels.

How it could be improved is not really down to the uni, but more the financial support needs to be more, given the current cost of living crisis. So through stipends. I also have children in childcare. The cost is astronomical. so, better guidance from the government tax tax-free childcare for PGR students would be great as we technically work full-time. the biggest barriers to students completing degrees are often the financial ones. read full review
