Newcastle is a special place that offers something for everyone. The North East – a region steeped in history with beautiful coastlines – is our proud home. We love it as much as you do, and we want your help to show it off!
During the 2025-26 academic year, we’re running an annual photography competition. We’re inviting students to take photos of what they get up to on campus and places across the School, the University and the city, to help us showcase everything it has to offer.
Doing something interesting on campus? Take a snap! Planning a trip to the quayside? Let us know! Taking a trip to the coast? We want to see!
The competition is a great opportunity for new students to get familiar with their new surroundings and for those in their second year and beyond to show what they love about the place.
So, whether it’s the wildlife and nature in Leazes Park, the serenity of the Hatton Gallery, or the elegance of Grey Street, we want you to share your favourite parts of the city and the campus life with us.
