Why did you choose Queen’s?

“I choose to study at Queen’s due to its profound links with international Universities. I was also excited about the opportunity to live and experience the culture in Northern Ireland. I enjoy the fact that Queen’s is a mix between both a campus and city University, yet it is small enough to not be overwhelming. It was also the only UK University with such a diverse range of study abroad programme and optional modules.”
