# Queen's University Belfast **Canonical:** https://apis.io/providers/queens-university-belfast/ **Website:** https://www.qub.ac.uk/ **APIs profiled:** 38 Queen's University Belfast is a Russell Group research-intensive university in Northern Ireland, United Kingdom, founded in 1845, and ranked #206 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public, machine-readable developer footprint is limited and centered on research dissemination: the Queen's University Belfast Research Portal runs on Elsevier Pure and exposes an OAI-PMH harvesting endpoint for institutional research outputs, datasets, and theses. Most other digital services (student portal, applications portal, library discovery via Ex Libris Alma/Primo) are gated behind authentication and do not publish open developer documentation. ## Kin Score — 32.9 / 100 (thin) Scored 2026-08-21 under rubric 0.12.0.
