The series allows future applicants the opportunity to engage in career development conversations and to find out more about life at the university.

The UU regularly visits over 350 schools and meets with 20,000 students each year throughout Northern Ireland and bordering counties in the Republic. However, with physical visits now an impossibility, the University has embraced the novel online ‘webinar’ approach.

Over the coming months, a variety of virtual talks have been specifically designed for Year 12, 13, 14 students and parents and families, providing them with an opportunity to explore what Ulster University has to offer, as well as guidance on the next step in applications in these uncertain times. Each webinar is recorded and can be revisited, allowing teachers to incorporate them into their virtual classrooms. To register visit www.ulster.ac.uk/events/recruitment-webinars
