Most helpful review

Sheffield Hallam has helped me build life long friendships, develop new hobbies and gain a better understanding of what I want to achieve in the future. Staff have been helpful and supportive throughout my first year and I look forward to start my second year!

Hallam is alright. There should be a part to rate the organisation of the university i.e. admin etc... because that has been TERRIBLE in my experience. But if you take away the lack of organisation then my experience at Sheffield Hallam has been completely positive.

I absolutely love studying at Sheffield Hallam (even if the Students' Union is a bit rubbish!) because the campus is modern, has great facilities and is located right near the city centre.

Sheffield Hallam University is a great place to study. It has a fantastic range of courses to choose from. The lecturers are supportive. The halls of residence are located in a lovely part of the city near to the campus. It is an inexpensive place to live. The amenities and nightlife offer many opportunities to socialise and make friends. There are many parks and green areas and it is next to the Peak District National Park. The people are friendly too.

Tutors and Lecturers can be rude and lazy, only a couple that actually care about your understanding but instead more concerned about just you knowing the answer and not how to get there. If you can, go University of Sheffield.

Excellent university! As a Bioscience student, the labs we use are first-rate, with many of the same facilities as are available in research labs and industry. The library is filled with excellent computers (with a very good booking system) and all the books we need. Any journals we need but that the uni don't have can be ordered in for us, free of charge. Wifi is VERY fast and works perfectly. Staff are supportive and helpful, and usually lecture in the area they are researching. Very knowledgable and always seem enthusiastic. Lots of support available for careers, ie how to get jobs and how to be the best applicant, hence why such a high percentage of graduates are in work or further study. The Union is good but the building itself could be improved. They provide good support for students and always have a wide range of activities to sign up for. Societies are run well, and the number is always increasing so there are loads to join. I'm incredibly happy here!

Vast research into a course is required, or you end up being on a course that is misadvertised.

I would never recommend this university to anyone. The lack of organisation not only rubs through the faculty aces, but also you can feel it in the uni as a whole. The health service and student support are good however. Great support.
