Publicity Information

From innovative teaching methods and high profile speakers, to new insights into literature and a clearer understanding of our environment, the University of Hull is contributing to our knowledge of the world around us. 

If you’re working on something that is particularly interesting and relevant to wider audiences, remember that people want to know about it. The PR team receives calls each day from journalists eager to speak to academics about their research.

Our work presents great opportunities to promote the University on a regional, national and international stage – to talk about what we do best, and to reinforce the message that our work is having an impact on society.

Read the PR Guide to find out more about the University’s PR function.

All requests for support are judged according to two basic criteria:

• The potential for media interest in the project/story
• The extent to which working on the project in question will benefit the University’s overall strategic objectives

For stories that we are unable to cover, see the PR Toolkit for details on how you can promote your own story as well as advice on dealing with the media.
