Ambitious Plans. Made Together.

We recognise the talent of our students and staff is our single greatest asset and we are committed to finding new ways of sharing our talent across the region.

• Providing students access to placement and recruitment opportunities with local employers through our Careers Service and the RISE scheme
• Developing world-class talent in partnership with industry at the AMRC Training Centre
• Ensuring routes into Higher Education for those at risk of missing out through programmes such as HeppSY+
• Promoting a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship

We’re working with partners to regenerate the region by investing in spaces and technology, transforming key public places in the city and making sure that South Yorkshire keep its crown as a world-leading advanced manufacturing hub.

• Supporting Sheffield City Council to transform the high street
• Developing green spaces through projects such as Grey to Green and Love Square
• Collaborating with the City to regenerate Sheffield Castlegate
• Architecture students and residents collaborate on exciting development projects
• Our campus masterplan

Lasting regeneration of the South Yorkshire region must reach beyond the usual beneficiaries to re-energise and involve all communities and corners of the region. 

• Our students give back to local organisations with 20,000 hours of volunteering time
• Sheffield's unique Medicine Community Partnership Placements give the doctors of tomorrow valuable experience within communities
• The University within the community

We have a simple but genuine ambition to be a trusted civic partner and role model for the region and an organisation that adds up to more than the sum of its many parts.

• The University reaffirms its historic civic commitment
• Supporting the regional response to post-Covid recovery
• Professor Dave Petley discusses how the AMRC model can drive forward innovation across the North
