Lets start by saying Sheffield Hallam University is the best University in the world! No thats not true... but its bloody brillant! I am here in my first year studying at their colligiat campus. The good thing about Sheffield is everything is so close. The max I walk is 20mins to anywhere! When I was looking around at other ...  Read the complete review

Sheffield Hallam University aka SHU is a terrific University. Bold you may say but prove me otherwise? Both campus's are situated in the heart of the city within 20mins walk of all halls of residence. Not many uni's get that to start with. Next the course I do there is brill! I do 'Sports and exercise science'. Im in my ...  Read the complete review

Having just graduated in Film from "the art campus up the road from the actual University!". I am living proof that Arts students do actually do some work. I have read the other reviews of SHU which have all been very informative, but have all been from ex-students from computing backgrounds or from those predominantly at the ...  Read the complete review

****UPDATE**** SEE BOTTOM OF REVIEW - MORE ADDED TO THIS REVIEW... Just an additional note on SHU... Although the first review is quite correct in it's analysis of the uni in most aspects, there are some other factors to consider. On the IT courses (under the odd banner of Computing and Management ...  Read the complete review

Sheffield Hallam University has some of the best courses, best results, is very well regarded by industry, and is flying high in the university league tables. That's what they told us at the open day. I'm not convinced that I'm attending the same university that they were talking about. Sheffield Hallam University (SHU) ...  Read the complete review
