Come and visit us
There are two kinds of open days here. At a University open day you'll tour the University, meet staff and students, see our excellent accommodation, visit Britain's best students' union and get a feel for life in Sheffield.
A department open day, which you can attend once you've put in your application, gives you the chance to meet archaeology students and chat to our staff about the courses, careers, facilities and anything else you like.
You'll also get to explore our superb research labs and stores. Handling the skeletons is recommended but not compulsory at this stage.
