How can I add to it?

You will acquire a wide range of curricular and extra-curricular learning experiences whilst you are at Sheffield, which the University is committed to recognising. Taking advantage of all the opportunities available to you will help you to make your Higher Education Achievement Report (HEAR) as useful as possible as a tool for representing your individual knowlege, skills and experience.

You can add to your HEAR in two main ways:

  1. By undertaking activities to supplement and apply your academic learning, e.g. taking a placement year and converting your degree to a Degree with Employment Experience, or participating in the University's Study Abroad Programme and spending part of your degree at a university in another country.
  2. By doing additional activities alongside your course, to take advantage of all the extra-curricular opportunities that the Univeristy and the Students' Union provide.
