The University of Sheffield offering a warm welcome to all our visitors

With more than 25,000 students and 7,000 staff, were very aware of the links between excellence in the built environment and academic excellence, and these links are at the heart of our ongoing programme to grow, develop and effectively manage our estate.

We are committed to meeting the expectations and needs of everyone using our buildings, amenities and services, identifying and removing any barriers to building use. Accessibility is at the heart of all our new building development. Ensuring that our older buildings are fully accessible is more of a challenge, but we continue to seek out innovative ways of re-organising and re-developing our older stock to ensure that it meets todays standards.

Our success in achieving our aims was recognised in the 2014-2015 Times Higher Education Student Experience Awards where, as well as taking top spot overall, the University also came first for its high quality facilities, a good social life, good accommodation and our Students Union.
