Why Queen's for Postgraduate Study?
Students from a range of countries and courses discuss why Queen's stood out as their number one choice for Postgraduate study.
“One of the things that stood out to me the most about Queen’s was its admissions process. I found the Queen’s admissions process to be very flexible in a good way because it gives you the ability to receive conditional or unconditional offers to be admitted.”
"Queen’s is well-known for research excellence, and it stood out as it is driven to make a global impact. I believe that I will gain more opportunities by studying at Queen’s compared to other institutions as they excel in collaboration with other stakeholders."
“Overall, the comprehensive nature of my course at Queen's has equipped me with a well-rounded skill set, positioning me as a capable and adaptable professional in the field of bioinformatics and computational genomics.”
"Queen’s is frequently mentioned when it comes to the research output of translation studies. When I was searching for universities, I saw a couple of graduates publishing their articles on social network platforms, such as Zhihu and Xiaoshongshu in China, talking about the dynamic research atmosphere and reputed translation scholars in the field."
“Ultimately my decision to move the Belfast and study at Queen’s came down to affordability, language compatibility, opportunity, and proximity to both my home in the US as well as to other countries.”
“During our introductory video meetings discussing expectations and the supervision process, while expressing some concerns I have as an international student they reassured me, ‘Don't worry, we'll look after you.’ Whilst I wouldn't need to be literally looked after, their warmth and support during that initial conversation sealed my decision.”
“Such a degree can be a direct ticket to move onto further higher positions through conducting more specialised research through a PhD. Consequently, this improves your career prospects, especially now the market has been filled with a lot of competition, and AI is replacing human tasks.”
“The curriculum's focus on current and future legal challenges in technology, taught by leading academics and industry professionals, who reciprocate positively, resonated with my academic and career goals.”
“I chose to move to Belfast and study at Queen's University for its unique postgraduate conversion course in psychology, tailored for students transitioning from different academic backgrounds. The programme's structure is designed to provide a comprehensive foundation in psychological theory and research methods, appealing to my desire for a rigorous yet supportive learning environment.”
"I am pursuing PG study in LLM International Commercial & Business Law because I am interested in international commercial law and want to expand my knowledge in this area, which is highly relevant to my professional work in the auditing and consultancy industry. I can add more value to the team and clients, especially as the UK is the originator of the world’s legal system and Queen’s School of Law is ranked as one of the top law schools in UK."
