Hull ranked second in region for preparing graduates for the future

Our students highlighted the skills of our academic staff as a particular strength, with 93% recognising the quality of the explanations they receive. The University’s learning resources were also highly rated, with more than 90% of students expressing positive views on facilities including the library and study spaces.

Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Education) Professor John Craig said: “These results are recognition of the outstanding experience our students receive.

“Being ranked second amongst universities in Yorkshire and the Humber for preparing students for the future shows that at Hull students gain the skills, confidence and support they need to succeed after graduation.

“We're proud that our students have recognised the quality of resources, learning environments and outstanding academic staff. Every member of our University community is committed to helping students make the most of their time here and leave ready to thrive in their chosen careers.

“I would like to thank every student who took the time to complete the survey. Their feedback is invaluable in helping us build on our strengths and continue improving the experience we offer.”

The annual National Student Survey commissioned by the Office for Students invites final year undergraduate students across the UK to offer opinions across seven themes including teaching and learning opportunities, access to support, resources and equipment and opportunities to give feedback to their institutions. Students have been surveyed each year since 2005. Nearly half a million are invited to take part annually.
