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)
Some links on the relationship after the Royal University was dissolved... [1] [2] [3]
Would it be practical and benificial to create an article on each campus rather than listing it all in this article; maybe, for instance in the style University of Ulster at Belfast, etc giving each campuses details in a dedicated article? Djegan 18:57, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
I think at this point it would be prudent to fill/split out University of Ulster at Belfast, University of Ulster at Jordanstown and University of Ulster at Magee rather than maintaining this as a superarticle? It would also reduce the number of cats. Djegan 19:53, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
Its worth to note that the university is not listed on the current membership list of EUA, but it was a member previously. Djegan 23:46, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
Is this a useful or clear entry? For universities in the Republic where a clear legal record is needed for Senate elections this is meaningful data, but for other universities it's either guesswork or the number the university alumni office has on record (and the latter really says more about how good the alumni office is at maintaining contacts, and how easy a task that is, than anything else). Timrollpickering 21:46, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
Prior to 1984 did Coleraine use for day to day purposes "New University of Ulster" or "University of Ulster" as its name? (For similar see " Victoria University of Manchester".) Timrollpickering 15:36, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
In the Library the evidence is there of NUU - on some of the older books it clearly says "New University of Ulster" NornIronMan ( talk) 16:19, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
Definitely used NUU - when I was there I was told Queens originally objected to the name "University of Ulster" (as it considered itself to be that), hence the New at the front. Everybody called it NUU — Preceding unsigned comment added by Haxbyct ( talk • contribs) 23:53, 15 June 2013 (UTC)
(I'm posting this to all articles on UK universities as so far discussion hasn't really taken off on Wikipedia:WikiProject Universities.)
There needs to be a broader convention about which university rankings to include in articles. Currently it seems most pages are listing primarily those that show the institution at its best (or worst in a few cases). See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Universities#University ratings. Timrollpickering 21:37, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
The references are both in an arts section. I'm sure a similar reference could be provided for an array of languages, French, German, Spanish, Urdu, and it continues. Irish is not the Native name of the University of Ulster, UU is what is on it's charter, it is the only name used. Also, as per Talk:Queen's University Belfast, Irish should only be used with Ulster Scots for NI public bodies as per the Belfast Agreement. Irish alone is POV.

The Campus One sub-section was reduced to one sentence today, when I discovered that almost the entire section was a possible copyright violation. Please dig in and contribute something to replace it. -- Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) ( Talk) 15:06, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
The University of Ulster logo in use on all University of Ulster pages is out of date ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:University_of_Ulster_logo.svg). The new logo is at http://wwwimages.ulster.ac.uk/online/images/web-logo-08-white.gif. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pvitty ( talk • contribs) 03:53, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Should the name apear in Irish above the crest - it isn't an official name of the University and hence an Irish (or any other) translation is not valid at this point. This is unlike the Students' Union, who do have a bilingual (English/Irish) policy. Blowmonkey 14:58, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
This debate was re-opened five years later! In an edit summary, an editor whose work I normally admire wrote: "Undo POV-pushing. Find some working examples of the university using the name to refer to itself". All the links he deleted work today at archive.org.
Here is another that doesn't need the wayback machine:

While the Institute of Nursing Research is arguably notable, it is not a separate entity from the University of Ulster. It therefore makes sense to merge the little information about it here to the main article about the University of Ulster instead. ToniSant ( talk) 17:57, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on
Ulster University. Please take a moment to review
my edit. You may add {{
cbignore}}
after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{
nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{
Sourcecheck}}
).

Somehow the official English language name of the university was omitted. It is and remains University of Ulster. If in doubt, its charter and statutes can be reviewed here: [4]. I've modified accordingly. Rebranding is not the same as renaming! Frenchmalawi ( talk) 01:17, 22 September 2016 (UTC)
There shall be and there is hereby constituted and founded in Northern Ireland a university with the name and style of the "University of Ulster"..."
It should be noted however that the University's official charter has not yet been updated to reflect this.<ref name="2015-2016 Charter, Statutes and Ordinances">{{cite web | url=http://www.ulster.ac.uk/secretary/charter_&_statutes.pdf | title=University of Ulster Charter, Statutes and Ordinances 2015 - 2016 | publisher=Ulster University | accessdate=September 22, 2016}}</ref>

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)
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)
