About Belfast

---

Belfast is a city with a remarkable heritage, from its emergence as a world centre of industry and shipbuilding, through a generation of political and social turmoil, to the vibrant and growing urban centre that you see today. Throughout Belfast’s history the character, humour and local pride of its residents has always been a defining part of the city. Modern Belfast offers a fantastic quality of life, and with a relatively young population the city continues to evolve and develop.

Queen’s University, based in the heart of Belfast, is one of the leading universities in the UK and Ireland, providing world-class education underpinned by world-class research.
