University Of UlsterA vibrant multi-campus institution with a reputation for innovation and regional engagement, the University of Ulster has some 24,000 students who study on campus at Coleraine, Jordanstown, Belfast and Londonderry, while the University’s virtual campus, Campus One, attracts growing numbers of students worldwide. The University is regarded as a sector leader in the UK in widening access to higher education, and in promoting social and economic inclusion.
Through its research program the University has become recognised nationally and internationally for its work in many fields including biomedical sciences, Celtic studies, art and design, disciplines related to the built environment, law, media studies, nursing, and health and rehabilitation sciences.
As Northern Ireland moves from its dependence on traditional heavy industry to a knowledge-based economy, the University is at the forefront of development through knowledge transfer. Key elements of its contribution include cutting edge work in biomedical sciences, nanotechnology, information technology, the creative industries and business studies.
University staff, students and alumni play a leading role in the cultural and sporting life of Northern Ireland and further afield, reflecting the University’s academic strengths in areas such as music, drama, dance, art and design, media studies, and sports studies, while also promoting the positive economic and social benefits of engagement in culture and sport.
The University has made a commitment to concentrate further expansion at the Magee campus in Derry, while reinvesting in the infrastructure at its other campuses in Belfast, where ambitious redevelopment is under way, at Coleraine, and at Jordanstown.
