Ratings and Reviews
I have really had a very good experience studying at the Ulster University, the lecturers are so friendly and very approachable, the standard of teaching is top notch! We are challenged to be the best version of ourselves by the assessments we carry out. The building is so beautiful and big, very conducive for learning. I will definitely recommend ulster to my friends, family members and neighbours. Thankful for the experience.

So glad to be completing my education here
I enjoy university and the education it provides
Have nothing to say. Everything is just so perfect
Facilities at Jordanstown are outdated and timetabling is inconvenient. Hopefully this is different with the change in campus
Rubbish, very disorganised, mislead you in terms of what is expected, over worked staff mean you get little or no support just rushed half baked email guidance, rubbish IT systems, internet and support too
Brilliant all round university
The university is a great place for students looking to study sports but the jordanstown campus itself is very limited
Great societies where you can meet so many different students from different backgrounds. Most lecturers are fantastic but some could be better, not all are great with students
very cultural and alot of creative fascilities
unorganised staff, clustered deadlines, no priority for student wellbeing. buildings falling apart and confusing.
The university has seen better days but has a homely and chill atmosphere. Many good food options as well.
Love the uni. Everyone has a good relationship with lecturers and students
It’s great, the facilities and equipment are more than what you need and it’s overall just incredible
Ulster is a really nice university to go to , from day 1 I was made to feel welcome.
Amazing teaching staff who care about you as an individual rather than a face in the crowd
As a student who has just finished first year I have to say that the society life here is great. I joined with very few people that I know and I am quite a shy person but after joining some of the societies here I quickly began to meet people. In particular I enjoyed activities run by the Ulster Society of Student Engineers who did a great job making engineering feel more engaging.
Been waiting for that move to UU belfast from Jordanstown that's been promised for years...
Scholls within the uni are being spread over four campuses staff are stressed and it has an impact on the overall experience the clubs and socities are disgraceful as well as the students union they simply dont want to know
Overall good university but poor internet connection throughout the college.
Dreadful. Everything about it.
Jordanstown needs more than just a shop in the student village and the gym is shockingly small. On several occasions I had to wait for several minutes to get on equipment I wanted. The career service as well as lecturers (business Studies) are all approachable and helpful
Appaling Masters Program, poor course content, executed even more poorly. Multiple admin issues with registry office, scheduling etc.
A good university and staff are very welcoming, not research driven but they are career driven ensured to a high standard that their students get jobs. Jordanstown university is quite dated however they are moving to Belfast investment in facilities in the Jordanstown campus is low and is understandable. Overall a great experience at Ulster university where the staff have time for the students.
Lectures are very helpful and friendly, good course content. Just really bad facilities, library opening hours are awful! University closed multiple days coming up to exams giving no place to study. Library is so loud, no quite place to work on a computer
Shameful excuse for a university.
The neglected child of universities in the UK and it shows by is emphasis on its Student Union
Great university and the facilities are great too.
A good uni with friendly staff
Ulster university is a warm welcoming environment, even though Jordanstown is outside of Belfast it has the advantages of being away from the city with big open space to walk and chill between class and there are still plenty of places inside to eat and chill. There are a wide range of societies which make it easy to find something you love and keep pursuing it or to try something new.
Love the campus I am at (jordanstown). Its wonderful having everything in the one building meaning its easy to get around. Also has everything you could need in a uni including a pharmacy!
The facilities in the School of Computing in Jordanstown are great. The building itself is old but that is to be expected since the move to the new campus will be happening soon. The Students Union could be modernised, but I really enjoyed my time in university and I’m glad I chose it.
Lecturers are amazing (in my course) but overall the uni has really gone down hill over the past 3 years
Overall great experience and opportunities provided however gets boring only learning off PowerPoints every lecture
Excellent lectures, tutorials, and lab practicals UUMagee
Good uni with good cafés to grab a quick coffee between classes
Good location, and good support from tutors
Studying in UUB for two years now, I had a great experience while studying at Ulster University. The wifi works perfectly well, it is easy and reliable to use whenever you need it. It is fast and it helps you research things and the amount of MAC computers the university has, it's very useful- which means students can use CAD for their projects. The careers service and student union are very helpful as well if you need anything, for eg. Careers advice, CV, clubs and societies. Student Union helps you to participate in a lot of areas that will be great for your CV, for eg travel to Philadelphia to discuss issues that are related helping students with their welfare, competitions & many more. The campus has a bank, coffee shop, restaurant and a student shop called UNIQUE where students sell their designs to the public.
Great experience at Ulster. I would recommend it to any potential student. The Careers team really helped me secure placement and a graduate job. I would also suggest joining a sports team or society to make new friends.
Poor student union however will likely to improve when campus moves to Belfast.
The cafes and shops are great to get food and being a smaller campus it feel nice knowing you can't really get lost
Do not live on campus. The accommodation people do not care about students.
