You are welcome to visit Queen’s

Prospective students and Old Members are always welcome to visit at any time when the College is open, between 9am and 7pm.

We ask Old Members to bring their alumni card if they have one; if not, then you may be asked for proof of identity. The best way for Old Members to arrange a visit is to email the Old Members’ Office.

Members of the public can arrange access by contacting the local Blue Badge Guides. The Chapel holds a number of public services, and during term there are frequent public concerts and recitals. Additionally, the College has a digital guide on Bloomberg Connects, the free arts and culture app.

🏅 What is it abou

🏅 What is it about neutrinos that keeps attracting Nobel Prizes?

The 2026 Nobel Prize for Physics has been awarded to Francis Halzen for his pioneering work on the IceCube Neutrino Observatory in Antarctica and the discovery of high-energy neutrinos from space.
This marks the fifth Nobel Prize recognising research into these elusive particles.

Queen’s Fellow and neutrino physicist Dr Kirsty Duffy joins the 'Physics World Weekly' podcast to explore what makes neutrinos so fascinating.

🧠 What if we coul

🧠 What if we could map the brain like Google Maps and trace not just individual landmarks, but the connections between them?

Our latest blogpost features DPhil student Sapolnach, whose research explores the rapidly developing field of connectomics: mapping the networks that shape our thoughts and behaviour.

We spoke to him about the big questions driving his research, as well as his work to open up neuroscience to young people around the world and give students the chance to work with real brain data.

𓁈 How did people

𓁈 How did people in Ancient Egypt choose to present themselves and how did they hope to be remembered?

In our latest research blog, Honorary Fellow Prof Elizabeth Frood explores identity and legacy through the extraordinary statue of Wenennefer, a high dignitary under Ramesses II. She also reflects on her recent Visiting Fellowship in Paris, a significant milestone both professionally and personally, and on the power of objects to bring ancient stories to life.
