Becoming a Global Citizen

The University of Sheffield is a truly global institution with students from over 130 countries choosing us as their study destination. It is unlikely that you will have another time in your life where such diversity is represented in one place. There are currently over 5,000 EU and overseas students registered at the University. International students constantly tell us they want to make friends with UK students and experience British life and the benefits to UK students interacting with international students are vast.

This section of the website provides you with some top tips for becoming a global citizen and developing your global skills (an essential for the world of work!), fun ideas for brining a flavour of the world into your everyday life and links to useful university web pages about the global opportunities you can take advantage of during your time as a University of Sheffield student.
