Talk:Ulster University

Founded?

The box says founded in 1968. Should we change it to 1984, or consider those changes as being more akin to the New University of Ulster gobbling up the polytechnic? Timrollpickering 21:47, 23 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I think keep the former date, the arguement can be made that the university was in transition and has a common past. You do however have a point- the royal charter refers to "...a new university institution, known as the “University of Ulster”, be constituted and founded within Northern Ireland..." and this is a very good case for the latter date. But unusually the polytechnic swollowed the university - rather strange in the UK experience! Djegan 23:01, 23 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I have changed the date to 1984 Djegan 19:06, 25 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Category:Academics of Ulster University

I suggest that this category should be headed as follows: - "These are people that are or have been academic staff at Ulster University (since 1984) and its predecessor institutions Magee College (1865-1969), Ulster Polytechnic (1971-1984) and New University of Ulster (1969-1984)." I'm open to correction on the dates. Thoughts? Alekksandr (talk) 14:23, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

Now done. Alekksandr (talk) 19:23, 5 June 2018 (UTC)

History section

The last paragraph of the “History” section reads more like an essay than an encyclopedia article. 2600:1702:6D0:5160:55EF:844B:A372:C6F (talk) 19:04, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
