MSc(Res) in Cancer Medicine - Batch of 2026

4.1

Just keep exploring and everyday will be a new surprise.

Tips: Not everyone would talk to you. It doesn't mean that people here don't like you. Sometimes you could be mistaken for a racist mentality. But the people are quite in general. They are polite if you ask for help. But don't expect they will always be willing to talk. I don't mean to say there is 0 racism here. But their basic human nature and racist attitude are distinguishable. Eating out could be expensive. Make the right friends. Take time to cook your own food rather than buying a pack of tortillas. Home cooked meal hits different.

Likes (Value for money): I study at Patrick Johnson centre for Cancer Research. It's one of the most advanced centres and the Principal investigators get loads of funding for the project. This is really important if you are aspiring to work in research. The labs, the projects, the seminars, the modules, and the help you get to learn everything are 10/10.

Dislikes (Part time work): The college schedule of MRes Cancer Medicine is for 5 days a week 9 am to 5 pm. It becomes pretty tiring to go to work after college and work for at least 4-5 hours. Anyway, this experience is tough. But you get a good hang of this routine. Unknowingly, it is making you tough for your struggle.

MSc in Pharmaceutical Analysis - Batch of 2026

4.4

Diversity that becomes a family at QUB.

Tips: It's a great place to study after moving to Belfast; the people are very kind, and the nightlife is good. When you come to a new country, try to blend in and explore the culture. The university offers financial aid, but you might need to provide supporting documentation. A loan document could be helpful. It offers around 500. I am very satisfied with my time here.

Likes (Part time work): We have opportunities in the union with many roles, even off-campus; we have access to plenty of jobs. The kind and polite people create a nice working environment that is manageable with academics. I would suggest avoiding food chain jobs. On average, a student can earn £850 per month.

Dislikes (Internships): There are fewer internship opportunities in Belfast compared to the mainland. Since most courses start in September, many internship postings come out in October and November, which is when new students arrive and often miss out. Therefore, I would recommend starting your search as soon as you begin your course.

MSc in Bioinformatics and Computational Genomics - Batch of 2025

Perfectly designed university for students.

Tips: I love the culture here in Belfast. The people are amazing and friendly, both in Belfast and in other cities in Northern Ireland. I got a PGT scholarship with an early bird offer of 2000+1500 = 3500. After subtracting the scholarship amount, I paid the fee amount. I am very satisfied with the course, the country, and the university.

Likes (Part time work): I spend my day walking from the student accommodation to my university, which takes about 15-20 minutes. I love learning with my classmates, and the campus is amazing. The student union is a great place to hang out, socialize, and work. They have a piano and organize many events, including career fairs, festivals, and treasure hunts. There are also many clubs, including hiking, sports, equestrian, education, spiritual, and water sports clubs.

Dislikes (Internships): The faculty encourages and trains students to work on their part to understand and learn the subject by giving application-based assignments. All the faculty members are just an email away. They give their appointments to students in need and help to understand students' POV as well. The faculty are a mixture from different parts of the world with diversity from Europe, Asian, and the UK.

MSc Artificial Intelligence - Batch of 2025

3.5

The curriculum is well defined and the faculty are very helpful.

Tips: One of the key reasons I joined this university is because it's the cheapest Russell Group university, and the cost of living in Belfast is comparatively low compared to other cities. Belfast is a small city, and the university has scholarship programs, but they won't affect you. The course structure is well-defined, and the professors are very helpful, but you will struggle to get marks from them. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.

Likes (Part time work): You can get part-time work both on and off campus especially around Christmas. It may be a bit of a struggle at first, but there are plenty of part-time options available, so don't stress about finding a job. If you budget wisely, you can cover most of your expenses and even save some money.

Dislikes (Value for money): As an international student from India the high tuition and living costs at Queen's University Belfast can be a financial burden. The scholarship you receive won't be enough to offset the cost of living especially for housing and accommodation.

MSc Marketing - Batch of 2025

4.1

Wonderful city and university of love in with multiple opportunities to take on.

Tips: There is going to be a cultural shift academically as well as in general. Coming from a small town I have seen a lot of cultural socks here in my first month. I received a scholarship of 6000 pounds from QUB. It was based on my SOP. I am very satisfied with all of these factors, the university is amazing, the people are very helpful and generous, and the course is on point with my preference. Overall, I am quite satisfied with the course, country and university.

Likes (Part time work): Belfast is a comparatively small town but has a lot of part-time role opportunities across all domains. On-campus roles are pretty hard to accomplish as a lot of people apply for them at once. It sometimes gets hard to manage your day with part-time and lectures. It's right down to the minimum wage.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): Due to competition from other applicants, it is pretty hard to land a job of your interest. However, if you start early at applying to internships and placement while semesters are running you can get an upper hand on them. LinkedIn is also a very nice tool to make new connections that will help you land a role. All kinds of marketing roles are available starting from approximately. 18000-30000 year.

MSc Business Analytics - Batch of 2023

3.4

This place will help you transform to a stronger version.

Tips: After joining the college there will be huge cultural shift and cultural shocks. Develop a mindset to embrace the culture open heartedly. There will be a scholarship depending on your merit and they deduct it from total fees. I am partially satisfied with university, course, and country. Because the course was not entirely taught as promised for non technical students and they expected us to learn by ourselves and complete the course. This was a huge blow to non technical students.

Likes (Part time work): There are plenty of part time jobs on campus and around the campus. It's hard to manage studies and jobs at the same time but increases time management skills. Basic pay for all jobs. You need to manage the time schedules for job and academic works. If you are unable to manage, there are support systems to help you complete academic work from university.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Due to change of rules, there is almost no chance of getting permanent settlement. An international student is given only a last priority. It is absolutely tough to compete with the native here for job hunting. If given a chance, I would definitely opt for permanent settlement.
