Welcome to Sheffield Hallam University

University of the Year!

Sheffield Hallam was awarded uni of the year in 2021 (UK Social Mobility Awards) and uni of the year for teaching quality in 2020 (Good University Guide), so it’s no slacker!

Currently, Sheffield Hallam ranks 25th for value-added in the Guardian’s University Guide 2022. This means that you’re more likely to do better on your course at Hallam than students elsewhere with the same entry grades!

Investing for you!

Sheffield Hallam has two campuses: City and Collegiate. There’s an awesome interactive panoramic on their website that you can use to explore them both!

And get this - Hallam has already invested £100 million into their campuses over the last 5 years and will be investing a further £220m in the development of new buildings, students’ union and green spaces! That’s dedication.

A top student city!

Sheffield is the UK’s 5th largest city but 60% of it is made up of green space! That means you have the lights and buzz of city living (Sheffield is home to the UK’s largest community of artists and designers outside of London), but also have the opportunity to relax with nature.

Not only that, but the beautiful Peak District is a stone’s throw away - perfect for climbing enthusiasts, hikers, or a pleasant country stroll!

University of Sanctuary

Sheffield Hallam was commended for its support of refugees and other people seeking sanctuary in 2021. The uni is committed to advancing equality of opportunity to help all students reach their full potential.

Hallam is a member of the Athena SWAN charter supporting women into STEM, is a Disability Confident Leader, Working Families Employer and a member of the Race Equality charter. Building accessibility details can be found in AccessAble for the entire campus!

Thinking green!

Sheffield Hallam has worked hard to promote environmentally sustainable practices, decisions and actions throughout all operations, teaching and research!

From saving water to reducing CO2 to green infrastructure on campus. They’ve even considered the impacts of their procurement processes! They understand that sustainability implications weave through everything we do!
