We're taking higher education higher
We’re shifting our focus from what our students know to what they can do. And this is how we’re doing it.
How will you learn? By doing.
We believe in real-world learning, where students tackle tasks that mirror the challenges they'll face beyond the classroom. For example, our assessments are designed to be practical and engaging. These could involve creating projects, building portfolios, writing articles for newsletters or newspapers, designing digital projects, participating in debates, or delivering presentations.
We value the voices of our students. And we work in genuine partnership with them. Students helped in the redesign of our curriculum and work with us to ensure our courses remain inclusive. Plus, we have systems in place for our students to provide feedback on everything from our senior leadership team to individual modules.
Outstanding opportunities and gold-standard teaching
We’re pioneers for university teaching in the UK. But don’t just take our word for it. We’re rated Gold in the latest Teaching Excellence Framework – the highest possible ranking – so you’ll be studying at a university where the teaching, student experience and student outcomes have all been assessed as “typically outstanding”.
We’ve even received funding to explore how our approach could be implemented across the higher education sector.
Explore the whole world in Hull
If you want to do and see everything, Hull’s the place to study. Through our Study Abroad Exchange Programme, you can study at one of our partner universities around the world for a trimester or a full academic year, depending on your subject.
Experience education for real
Placements offer you the chance to gain work experience, increase your employability and boost your degree qualification.
Some courses have mandatory placements built into them, while others offer additional optional placements.
Broaden your horizons with a summer abroad
Options include Summer Schools, international volunteering and study tours, but whatever you choose you’ll get a taste of the international experience, boost your employability and make memories that last a lifetime.
