Global Connections

We have a long history of global collaboration and partnership, in our teaching, research and student exchanges.

We collaborate with partner universities around the world in research projects, sharing ideas on teaching, promoting opportunity for our students, and ensuring that the global challenges of our time are solved by great minds from around the world.

The University is an active member of several global networks and alliances, and international research groups.

International Research

At the University of Hull, we work with international research partners and on globally relevant research.

We believe in research for a purpose, not for the sake of it. Whether that’s slashing plastic pollution and switching to low-carbon energy, confronting social injustice and putting an end to modern-day slavery, or helping more people survive cancer and pioneering the best end-of-life care.

Together, we’re building a fairer, brighter and carbon-neutral future for all.
