Overview
Sheffield Hallam’s marketing handle – Knowledge Applied – succinctly captures the university’s ethos and approach to higher education. Rooted firmly in its South Yorkshire community, Hallam seeks to meet the business and industry needs of its home patch through its applied teaching and healthy production line of work-ready graduates. Its Civic University Agreement enshrines Hallam’s commitment to the region through contributing to the economy and jobs, education and skills, health and wellbeing, and community and regeneration. About 40% of its students come from within 25 miles of the university. Hallam has more undergraduates than its city neighbour and everything here is done on a grand scale. It trains around 1,000 teachers a year across all degree stages; it is one of the biggest suppliers of healthcare graduates in the country; and its business school is the largest in the UK with more than 7,000 students. Socially inclusive – ‘our mission is to transform lives’, the university states – more than half of students are the first in their family to go to university. Three-quarters of graduates get high-skilled jobs, their courses having prepared them well, often being designed with industry input and incorporating work experience and placement years. Hallam has one of the best employment track records in the modern university sector.

Paying the bills
More than 8,600 students benefited from the SHU’s Student Success Scholarship in 2021-22. The exact criteria for the amount students receive are not easy to discern, but the range is £550 to £2,100, with the university advising that ‘most students will receive an award from the lower end of this scale’. Students from homes with an annual income of less than £62,311 can apply for the scholarship – one of the most generous eligibility thresholds in the UK – but the need to meet various widening participation criteria will then limit the number of sizeable awards made. Priority is given to care leavers and carers, estranged students, those with a disability or from an ethnic minority, final year students and those on high-cost courses. Talented sportsmen and women can apply to the Performance Athletes Support Programme for a package worth up to £3,000. Hardship support includes £35 of emergency food vouchers and one-off energy costs grants. In all, just under a third of Hallam students get some form of financial assistance from the university. Self-catered accommodation begins at just over £4,000 for a 44-week contract (somewhat more expensive than the cheapest rooms at the University of Sheffield), rising to £7,392 for a self-contained single studio flat with a double bed.

What’s new?
The heart of Hallam’s main city campus is getting a makeover with three new buildings being constructed that will incorporate the latest sustainability and technological innovations to make them zero carbon. Sheffield Business School will be among those to benefit from the works; the new building will contain a modern trading floor. The College of Social Sciences and Arts will move into another of the buildings, including SHU Law, the university’s not-for-profit teaching firm. At the centre of the development will be a public green space with capacity for up to 150 people. The project is due to be completed in the spring next year, in time for the 2024 student intake.

Admissions, teaching and student support
With a diverse student population, Hallam seeks to take account of individual circumstances in all the offers it makes. If a student meets one or more of its contextual admissions criteria, it will make a lower conditional offer, or if the student has already gained their qualifications, it will accept them with lower grades. It runs an applicant and transition support scheme – SHU Progress – for those whose personal circumstances might hinder them from progressing to university, giving them a named contact to guide them through the process to the point of joining the university. Once there, the student support offer is comprehensive: three named advisers are allocated to all students where they register – a student support adviser for personal advice, an academic one to help with their studies, and an employment adviser to help them prepare for their career. Mandatory online training is given to all academic advisers around mental health, while student awareness is raised through a compulsory induction session which includes advice about the mental health services on offer and where to go for help.
