"Sheffield is a great place to live no matter what, but I returned here for postgraduate study because I was impressed with the education at the University of Sheffield."

"The choice of modules offered by Sheffield University was far more extensive than any of the other I had researched and this confirmed to me that Sheffield was the right place to pursue further education."

"The department holds open historical discussion groups with both academic staff and students, and there are frequent social events, so it is easy to get involved and meet people."

"Although at first I was apprehensive about how different an experience an MA would be to my undergraduate degree, any lingering nerves were immediately settled as soon as I walked through the door and participated in my first seminar."

"After completing an undergraduate degree in French and History at Sheffield, I wanted to continue exploring those subjects which I had found interesting."

"Each module that I was involved in was thoughtful and absorbing, the resources were readily available and the support, advice, knowledge and organisation of the entire department were second to none."
