Ulster University at Jordanstown Football Club (also known as UUJ) is a Northern Irish, intermediate football club playing in Division 1A of the Northern Amateur Football League. It is affiliated with the Ulster University at Jordanstown.

The club was founded as part of Ulster Polytechnic in 1972 and entered the Irish League B Division. The club became UUJ with the amalgamation of the Polytechnic and the New University of Ulster as the University of Ulster in 1984. In 1991, it resigned from the B Division and dropped into the Amateur League.[1] In line with the university's rebrand in October 2014, the club updated its name.
