Love the uni

Love it

The community is very diverse and inclusive, you can find a lot of other people like you and get talking. Laptop borrowing, computer rooms, and lecture halls are useful and conducive to learning, and the professors want you to do your best and encourage you to achieve, giving good guidance as well. Student support can be hit or miss - I was not contacted by them in first year, and had to contact them myself so I could learn about what support they can offer me, but when the agreements are in place, they are quite good. Collegiate campus has amazing nature and building design, beautiful and on Ecclesall Road, and both campuses are easy to get to from the city centre. The Students' Union does not feel like it is part of the university - I have had little interaction with them, do not know the full extent of what they offer, and do not entirely know how they work, and so it does not seem like a top priority or the first thing one may think of when they think of Sheffield Hallam University. However, this is not the universal experience of the Union, and others may say differently. Overall, the university is rather good, and my experience is largely satisfactory.

My course is blended learning, at least six hours a week. Online classes are generally not as high in terms of attendance, and it can be rather hard to focus in comparison to in person classes. Lecturers are usually available, unless teaching or out of office. Generally quite good, a few things could be changed.

Diversity is great. Public transport can be hit or miss - buses especially are rather unpredictable. Safety is alright, keep your wits about you.
