Resources and Research Culture
The School is based in Jessop West, an eco-friendly building at the heart of the University campus. It houses staff offices, work stations for postgraduate students, teaching spaces, a well-resourced DVD library, an exhibition space, and a cafe on the ground floor, which is a useful meeting place for our postgraduates. Nearby, the School has a professionally equipped studio space, the Theatre Workshop.
The University Library subscribes to the major databases and peer-reviewed journals, and there is a regular free minibus to the British Library’s depository at Boston Spa. We also have strong links with Sheffield’s museums and theatres, contacts which we use in our research and teaching.
The School is proud of its lively and open research culture, and we encourage all our postgraduates to participate in the many reading groups, research seminars, and academic conferences which are regularly held here.
