Student Reviews
Hear from our international students
My international experience at Ulster University has been unbelievable. To be able to learn in a variety of contexts and be able to adapt is a great asset for future career and life settings. I feel that the difference will make me a stronger learner and a greater competitor in my future career.

The teaching quality is excellent because it associates the theoretical knowledge with practical application in the laboratory – making it effective learning for the labour market.

One of the great qualities that Ireland has is that it is small. This makes travelling easy and affordable. I am able to see and experience new places on just a weekend trip. This also applies to travelling to mainland UK and other European countries. Airfare to travel to these amazing places is very affordable.
