its big and spacious
Good engineering course
I really like the student union nights and all the societies if offer
Great student life. A bit quiet something.
I think as a second year I get anxiety from job prospect I feel Sheffield as a city is calm but is not as much opportunities as in London and Manchester tho
Best - inclusivity, roles, jobs, lectures, lecturers Worst - distance from accomodation
The showers in the accommodation turn on and off quite often, I really like it here in literally any other aspect
Campus looks is very cute. I love the people and the student union, always feel safe on a night out.
Good
Nothing to note
Best: lots of study spaces, lots of student events and support Worst: many 9ams, high workload,
I enjoy the SU
Best aspects is the support offered, physics dept, and the SU Worst is the accommodation but mostly because of my flatmates
good balance of social life and studying
Great uni, would like a little more support with adjusting to uni life (e.g help with accessing the right support and setting up budgets)
The libraries are good.
The resources available are endless and activities are very inclusive. I’d say more feedback and support being more accessible would be ideal.
Very nice university
Good fun


Engineering students don’t have time to live. But the Campus is mostly beautiful.
Lecturers are sometimes just reading off slides but the digital content is very helpful.
Proximity to the uni is great. But very mismanaged
