Great course, super interesting and informative. The teaching is done in a way that's industry-specific, so you finish the degree with lots of skills and knowledge about the industry. read more
English, BA Hons FullTime
So far enjoying the course, work load can be a bit shocking for the first year but it’s something you can easily sink into with good routine. I do however sometimes find a lot of the lectures/ seminars arnt important to attend as the information isn’t useful for the portfolio work. Lecturers are always there when you need help and most information is useful and engaging. read more

English Literature, BA Hons FullTime
First year: very interesting and very complex. The lecturers and tutors are all very passionate about their subjects which makes the experience even better. The course is built to expand your ways of thinking and to make you realise how much you are capable of. If you have a passion for literature I would definitely recommend studying at Sheffield Hallam because it’s one of the few uni’s that provides such a range of topics in so much detail and one of the few uni’s that pushes you to achieve more than you thought possible. read more

Some of the tutors are very poor & obviously tuition fees are way to high. Picking more interesting content would improve attendance. read more
