University of Ulster

University of Ulster

In 1984 the New University of Ulster at Coleraine and the Ulster Polytechnic at Jordanstown came together (bringing Magee College in Londonderry and the Art College in Belfast with them) to form the University of Ulster.

This is a modern, forward looking and a very friendly place to study. Over 23,000 local, national and international students study at undergraduate to postgraduate degree levels at our four campuses - Coleraine, Jordanstown, Belfast, and Magee.

Each campus is like its own little village and you'll find everything you need where you study. It's worth remembering though that all the different parts of UU add up to one huge university - Ireland's biggest. If UU was a town, it would be as big as Omagh.

Belfast campus

The Belfast campus is located in the heart of the vibrant Cathedral Quarter close to Belfast city centre. Belfast offers all you would expect from a cosmopolitan modern city - excellent shopping, pubs, restaurants, theatres, clubs, museums, cafes, coffee shops and Internet cafes. A great social life!

Jordanstown campus

Jordanstown campus is situated a few miles north of Belfast, overlooking Belfast Lough. Being close to Belfast makes the city and all its attractions very popular with students.

Magee campus

Magee campus is located close to Derry city centre, in the northwest of the province. Derry has a strong tradition of being rich in culture, with a highly active social scene. The new 1000 seat Millennium Theatre and the Foyle Arts Centre host a number of events and there are many cafes, pubs, restaurants, an Internet café and major shopping centres.

Coleraine campus

Coleraine campus is situated in the northwest, near Coleraine town, Portrush and Portstewart. Coleraine town has lots to offer in terms of entertainment and high street shopping. Portrush and Portstewart offer a great social life for students, and miles of clean sandy beaches - excellent for surfing. The campus grounds run down to the River Bann, an excellent venue for water sports.
