It is often referred to simply as "Queen's", or by the abbreviation "QUB". The university was chartered in 1845, and opened in 1849 as "Queen's College, Belfast", but has roots going back to 1810 and the Belfast Academical Institution.[2]

The university offers academic degrees at various levels and across a broad subject range, with over 300 degree programmes available.[3] The university's current President and Vice-Chancellor is Professor Peter Gregson, and its Chancellor is the former United States Senator, George Mitchell.

The University also forms the focal point of the Queen's Quarter area of the city, one of Belfast's four cultural districts.
