Latest: We're delighted to announce that Dr Andrew Heath has won the Sheffield Students' Union Excellence in Teaching Award. This is a University-wide award nominated by students, who praised Andrew for his seminars and the way he's been engaging students across a range of modules.
At Sheffield we use the latest insights to make sense of our historical past and the world right now. Our academics are leading historians, with world-wide reputations for their research. We combine this expertise with modern, imaginative teaching that gets our students thinking for themselves and doing hands-on research.
The University of Sheffield has been named UK University of the Year in the 2011 Times Higher Education Awards. We've won this prestigious award because we’re a world-class university in a unique city. We are a community true to our civic roots and our straightforward approach informs everything we do, both close to home and around the world.
