About

As an Officer Cadet, you’ll get to experience life in the Royal Navy, gaining transferable skills and qualifications, deploying in Royal Navy ships and playing representative sports.

It’s a unique experience that could see you doing fast ship manoeuvres in the Baltic, skiing in the Alps, skydiving in England, canyoning and hiking in Scotland and taking part in local water sports, all in one year – all while getting paid! 

No matter what campus you plan to attend, we have an option for you. So be part of something unique and apply to join URNU Belfast!
