🎄Christmas Eve viewing sorted: our Provost, Paul Johnson, will be appearing on the University Challenge Christmas Special…representing his alma mater, Keble.
In the spirit of the season, we’re choosing magnanimity. We trust Queen’s members will find it in their hearts to forgive him…especially if he nails the tough questions.

After a week of calling, our fantastic team of students raised over £160,000 in vital funds to support The Queen’s Fund and its key priorities: securing core teaching resources, providing hardship support for students, and strengthening our outreach programmes in the North West.
Huge thanks to everyone who picked up the phone, chatted with our students, and gave so generously. Our students loved hearing stories from Old Members across the generations and getting a glimpse of life after College!

The College warmly congratulates Fellow in Materials Science Prof Rob Weatherup, who has been awarded a European Research Council grant for his project to make chemicals and fuels more sustainable by decarbonising their production.
His project, OPERATE, tackles a major global challenge: creating essential chemicals and fuels without accelerating climate change. The project will use and develop new methodologies that can analyse a material inside its working environment while simultaneously measuring its performance.
