In response to exceptional demand, the University of Hull is expanding its UK offering and has newly welcomed students to a brand-new, bespoke London Campus. The new facilities, located next to the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford, offers postgraduate students the opportunity to experience a University of Hull degree while studying in one of London’s most dynamic and well-connected locations.
Building on the proven success of the University’s Bloomsbury based centre, this new offering boasts enhanced facilities, high-quality and relevant programmes, and outstanding teaching. With national assets such as Sadler’s Wells, the V&A East Museum, BBC Music Studios, and Stratford International rail interchange close by, the University of Hull London Campus also neighbours Stratford’s fast-growing new East Bank cultural quarter.
Celebrating the new London Campus, Tom Lawson, Vice-Chancellor, said: “The University of Hull is committed to an ambitious programme of growth and excellence. The opening of our new London Campus marks a momentous milestone in pursuit of those goals.
“With a focus on academic excellence and authentic learning experiences, we are bringing our Hull values to the nation’s capital, inspiring students from across the world to choose a University of Hull degree in London. We are proud to support a vibrant and diverse student community of more than 1,000 learners in London, representing 14 different nationalities.
“This diversity not only enriches the academic experience but also creates a dynamic learning environment that fosters global perspectives, cultural exchange, and collaboration.”
Christopher Macallister, Dean of the Hull London Campus, said: “Since our launch, two years ago, we have already seen huge success in our London-based postgraduate programmes at our Bloomsbury site, and we are excited to build on this with our new campus.
“To date, more than 650 students have completed their studies through our London provision, progressing into meaningful careers and making valuable contributions in their chosen fields. This summer, we look forward to celebrating a further 400 graduates, each equipped with the knowledge, skills, and ambition to succeed.
“In partnership with Cambridge Education Group, we are focused on providing exceptional learning opportunities for international students in one of the world’s most vibrant cities. We have seen outstanding demand for Hull’s programmes in London and this new site will offer improved study and social spaces.
“With enhanced facilities we are broadening our London offer further, including the development of in-demand courses in AI and data science, leadership, management and technology, responding directly to sector demand and supporting our drive for sustainable economic growth.” David Johnston, Cambridge Education Group CEO, said: “The growth and continued development of the London campus represents an exciting new chapter for Master’s students, opening the door to career-focused programmes in the heart of one of the world’s most dynamic capital cities, and bringing the strengths and spirit of Hull to London.
“As the campus continues to flourish, it will enable more students to access a world-class education shaped by innovative teaching, dedicated support and strong connections to future opportunities. Through the breadth of our provision and the reach of our global recruitment network, we are proud to support the University’s ambition for London and to help students realise their potential on an international stage.”
