The University of Hull

Introduction

The University of Hull is a thriving, progressive community of students and staff. We undertake world-class teaching and research, with impressive facilities and strong support networks, on two campuses in Hull and Scarborough. A portfolio of more than 900 courses, at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, covers the full range of academic subjects – arts, humanities, health, sciences and social sciences.

Anthony Minghella, Sally Lindsay, John McCarthy, Jenny Murray and John Prescott are some of the university's prestigious alumni and with honorary graduates such as Judi Dench, Pierluigi Collina and Paul Nurse, the university benefits from their wealth of experience and talent.

National teaching quality assessments rate our teaching skills very highly across a range of subjects. Our research is judged to be of international importance in many fields, and the quality of our research informs our teaching at all levels.

The university is actively involved in a wide range of partnerships with organisations and businesses from the public and private sectors, including Smith and Nephew, BAE Systems, The Deep, Reckitt Benckiser Healthcare, Yorkshire Cancer Research and Hull City Council.

We have many academic partners who are committed to widening participation in higher education and raising the aspirations of young people. The university has built up relationships with international academic institutions, opening up many opportunities for collaborative research and study abroad.

Each one of our 50,000 graduates is an important part of the growing worldwide network of our friends and supporters.
