Введение
Кампус Университета Ольстера в Колерайн (Ulster University at Coleraine) – кампус Университета Ольстера, расположенный в Колерайн, графство Лондондерри, Северная Ирландия. Здесь находится административная штаб-квартира университета, и он является наиболее традиционным по своему уклону, с акцентом на науку и гуманитарные науки. Он был основан в 1968 году как Новый университет Ольстера, а позднее, до октября 2014 года, был известен как Университет Ольстера в Колерайн, после чего был переименован вместе со всем университетом в Университет Ольстера в Колерайн. Кампус в Колерайн расположен на берегу реки Банн в Колерайн, с видом на побережье Causeway и холмы графства Донегал на западе.
The Ulster University at Coleraine (Ollscoil Uladh i gCúil Raithin) is a campus of Ulster University in Coleraine, County Londonderry, Northern Ireland. It houses the administrative headquarters of the university and is the most traditional in outlook, with a focus on science and the humanities. It was founded in 1968 as the New University of Ulster and was later known as the University of Ulster at Coleraine until October 2014 when it was rebranded with the rest of the university to be known as Ulster University at Coleraine. The Coleraine campus is situated on the banks of the River Bann in Coleraine with views to the Causeway Coast and the hills of County Donegal to the West. HistorySee also University of Ulster historyOriginally, the concept of a new university was well received by many nationalists in Northern Ireland. This was due to a feeling of bias that unionist communities, or towns, received better facilities and investment. As a result, the initial desire of nationalists was to form a new university institution at the already well established Magee College in Derry, a predominantly nationalist community. Some thought at the time that the reasoning for establishing the university in Coleraine over Derry was a desire to pull population towards the East of Northern Ireland as the university would strengthen the 'Belfast Coleraine Portadown' economic triangle, which happened to form the edge of the nationalist/unionist communities. It was suggested that this was part of a unionist agenda by Terence O'Neill, the then Prime Minister of Northern Ireland, to draw nationalist communities from the West into the East and to help break them up. There was no substantial evidence to back up this claim, however it was the idea that led to a number of protests and rallying in opposition. As violent protests continued, the result was that the recommendation of the Lockwood Report (named after the chairman of the committee which produced it, Sir John Francis Lockwood, Master of Birkbeck College, London and former Vice Chancellor of the University of London) was accepted by vote. The Troubles began shortly afterwards, and resulted in O'Neill leaving the office of Prime Minister, allegedly after being forced to resign. The campus was founded as the New University of Ulster in 1968 as Northern Ireland's second university, its establishment being inspired by the 1965 Lockwood Report. In 1969, Magee College was incorporated into the university, making Coleraine the primary campus of a multi centre university. After the university opened it was decided that students at Magee College studying their degrees would not transfer to Coleraine as they had previously done after two years of study with Trinity College Dublin. To meet demand, subjects like French and German were offered in a separate subject called West European Studies''. A number of other similar arts subjects were intended to commence at Coleraine, such as East European Studies, Irish Studies, Asian Studies and American Studies. These subject areas typically included history, two or more languages, social sciences and geography. However, these subject areas were never fully developed and were offered only as short courses. However, individual subjects in Asian and American Literature and History were developed. In 1984, Coleraine retained the headquarters role in a merger with the Ulster Polytechnic at Jordanstown.

Первоначально идея создания нового университета была хорошо воспринята многими националистами в Северной Ирландии. Это было связано с ощущением предвзятости, что юнионистские общины или города получали лучшие условия и инвестиции. В результате первоначальным стремлением националистов было создание нового университетского учреждения в уже хорошо зарекомендовавшем себя колледже Magee в Дерри, преимущественно националистическом сообществе. Некоторые полагали, что причиной выбора Колерайна вместо Дерри для размещения университета было желание привлечь население к востоку Северной Ирландии, поскольку университет укрепил бы экономический треугольник «Белфаст – Колерайн – Портадаун», который, как оказалось, формировал границу между националистическими и юнионистскими общинами. Предполагалось, что это было частью юнионистской программы Теренса О’Нилла, тогдашнего премьер-министра Северной Ирландии, по привлечению националистических общин с запада на восток и их разделению. Существенных доказательств, подтверждающих это утверждение, не было, однако именно эта идея привела к ряду протестов и митингов. Продолжающиеся насильственные протесты привели к тому, что рекомендация Доклада Локвуда (названного в честь председателя комитета, который его подготовил, сэра Джона Фрэнсиса Локвуда, магистра колледжа Биркбек в Лондоне и бывшего вице-канцлера Лондонского университета) была принята голосованием. Вскоре после этого начались «The Troubles» (Период беспорядков), в результате которых О’Нилл покинул пост премьер-министра, предположительно после того, как был вынужден уйти в отставку. Кампус был основан как Новый университет Ольстера в 1968 году как второй университет Северной Ирландии, его создание было вдохновлено Докладом Локвуда 1965 года. В 1969 году колледж Magee был включен в состав университета, что сделало Колерайн основным кампусом многопрофильного университета. После открытия университета было решено, что студенты колледжа Magee, изучающие свои программы, не будут переводиться в Колерайн, как они делали ранее после двух лет обучения в Тринити-колледже Дублина. Чтобы удовлетворить спрос, такие предметы, как французский и немецкий, предлагались в рамках отдельной дисциплины под названием «Западноевропейские исследования». Планировалось открыть ряд других подобных гуманитарных дисциплин в Колерайн, таких как восточноевропейские исследования, ирландские исследования, азиатские исследования и американские исследования. Эти предметные области обычно включали историю, два или более языков, социальные науки и географию. Однако эти направления так и не были полностью развиты и предлагались только в виде краткосрочных курсов. Тем не менее, отдельные дисциплины по азиатской и американской литературе и истории были разработаны. В 1984 году Колерайн сохранил роль штаб-квартиры в результате слияния с Ольстерским политехническим институтом в Джорданстауне.

Местоположение
Кампус расположен к северу от рыночного города Колерайн в графстве Лондондерри и недалеко от прибрежных курортов Портстюарт и Портруш. Вместе эти три города образуют район, известный как "Треугольник". Кампус также находится в нескольких минутах езды от впечатляющего побережья Каузвей – одного из самых живописных участков побережья в Европе. Побережье Каузвей – это территория выдающейся красоты, где находятся Гигантский перевал (объект Всемирного наследия ЮНЕСКО), старейшая в мире винокурня (Old Bushmills Distillery), пляжи, отмеченные "Голубым флагом", и поля для гольфа, соответствующие стандартам чемпионатов. Здесь также предостаточно возможностей для пеших прогулок, рыбалки и катания на лодках. Большинство студентов проживают в городах Портстюарт и Портруш, где сосредоточена ночная жизнь и развлечения. Эти оживленные города предлагают множество пабов и клубов, привлекающих как туристов, так и студентов.
Кампус
Кампус расположен на обширной территории парков и благоустроенных садов, включающих тихие зоны отдыха и хорошо развитый арборетум. В этом привлекательном ландшафте находятся современные, специально построенные здания для обучения, исследований и учебной деятельности. Эти основные направления поддерживаются развитой инфраструктурой общежитий, питания, спортивных сооружений и культурных центров, включая театр Riverside в Колерейне – третий по величине профессионально оборудованный театр в Северной Ирландии. Действующий проректор – профессор Карис Хатчинсон. В настоящее время в кампусе обучается более 5050 студентов (бакалавров и магистров, очной и заочной формы обучения) и работает около 1300 сотрудников, что делает его крупнейшим экономическим и институциональным центром на севере провинции.
Место портуша
В 2008 году площадка Портраш была закрыта, а Школа гостиничного дела, досуга и туризма (ранее "Северно-Ирландский колледж гостиничного и ресторанного бизнеса") была переведена в кампусы Колрейна и Белфаста.
