Sheffield Hallam University


Sheffield Hallam University is one of the UK's most progressive and innovative universities. Sheffield Hallam University traces its roots back to 1843, when the Sheffield School of Design was founded. It had a distinguished history as one of Britain's top schools of art and design for more than a century.
In 1905 the City of Sheffield Training College on Collegiate Crescent admitted its first 90 students. This teacher training college would also go on to become part of Sheffield Hallam University.
In 1969 the Sheffield School of Art and Design and the city's College of Technology merged to become Sheffield Polytechnic.
In 1976 the Polytechnic was renamed to Sheffield City Polytechnic, when it absorbed the city's two teacher training colleges. In 1992, the City Polytechnic earned the right to the title of University and the right to award its own degrees and became Sheffield Hallam University.
