I am currently studying in my second year at Sheffield Hallam. I have found everything so easy to access on the universities blackboard site and the support from my course leaders has been excellent. Every university building is so close together, making it an easy journey between lectures and seminars. The buildings are very modern with comfortable setting and a reliable WiFi connection for completing assignments. Hallam is a great university for all and I am enjoying my time here so much!

A good place to study with great people
Offers a fantastic and supportive student experience for everyone all round.
great university and teaching staff!
I really love it at hallam. It is a shame they don’t do more with the students union though.
Sheffield hallam university is good
It’s okay, I am enjoying my experience here
Good communication, disadvantages due to split campuses but overall would recommend
Very diverse university, a lot of clubs and societies to choose from and a lot of career opportunities available. Easy to access support but could be quicker in response times to emails etc.
Good uni and staff, friendly and very easy to contact and get advice and help.
I love the university experience and enjoy spending time on campus. The only criticism I have of the university would be that some tutors often appear frustrated by students asking for extra help. This is only a small handful but can make the learning experience much more difficult when made to feel afraid to ask for assistance.
Overall I'm enjoying Hallam as a uni in itself. I love my criminology course and studying at the collegiate campus is great as it's a much more calm and quiet campus in contrast to city campus. There are many socities and sports to involve yourself in as well. Plus the student union is pretty good though I was dissapointed they didn't organise any events for the world cup. I really like Hallam overall and I think I made a solid choice (8/10).
Hi, thank you for taking the time to review us and sharing your experience. We could not be happier to hear that you’re enjoying your time with us, studying at our tranquil Collegiate Campus and making the most of our ever-growing societies and sports clubs. We’re sorry to hear that you were disappointed that the Students’ Union didn’t arrange any events for the World Cup, we appreciate you raising this and we encourage you to let us know how we can improve via Union Voice (a brand-new feedback platform) to help us develop and improve. We look forward to hearing more from you and hope you continue to have a wonderful time with us. Best wishes, Luke
The campus is very modern and easy to use and the location is perfect as it is close to everything like shops, bars and clubs. The BA English course is amazing, it ls so much fun and I’d recommend it to any one!!
Hi there, thanks so much for taking the time to write us a review. We’re delighted that you enjoyed your course! We're constantly updating and adding to the facilities you'll use on your course. Our ‘Hallam Model’ is a distinctive approach that gives our students the opportunities and support needed to put the knowledge they gain into practice, preparing them for their future careers. We've also invested over £100 million in new facilities over the last five years, including 24-hour libraries and student-designed study areas. We find that our students from both campuses really enjoy the close proximity to the city centre and all the fantastic amenities it has to offer. If you’re ever looking for things to do, we’ve created a students’ guide to Sheffield which lists some of our favourite things around the city. Kind regards, Sheffield Hallam Team
Great place to be and study! Love it highly recommend!

Thank you for you review, we really appreciate your feedback! So pleased you are happy with your experience. Best wishes, Phoebe
it’s cool, teachings good n not much 2 complain ab
Really good, lectures and seminars are set out nicely
Depending on your course because every course is different, but for the business and finance school, it has run down ever since covid struck and they haven't recovered ever since. The only good tutors to have for the business courses are the module leaders, any others are really bad and read off of the PowerPoint slides and adds nothing to the subject. This university won best teaching of the year but they have let it get to their heads and the standards have gone downhill. 2/5 at best
Great social spaces with lots of amazing help from other people. Wifi is strong for work and an amazing student union
The university has been great so far, im studying engineering and the facilities we have access to are amazing. There are loads of societies to join and ive met so many amazing people through these.
I enjoy Sheffield Hallam as it is a welcoming place to be, I feel right at home and comfortable.
Overall a great uni with amazing facilities
