About the university
The University of Sheffield (informally Sheffield University) is a public research university in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England. It received its royal charter in 1905 as successor to the University College of Sheffield, which was established in 1897 by the merger of Sheffield Medical School (founded in 1828), Firth College (1879) and Sheffield Technical School (1884). Sheffield is a multi-campus university predominantly over two campus areas: the Western Bank and the St George's. The university is organised into five academic faculties composed of multiple departments and schools. It has approximately 20,000 undergraduate and 10,000 postgraduate students from 150 countries. There are six Nobel Prize laureates amongst Sheffield academics, alumni or former staff. Sheffield is a world-top 100 university, ranked 98th worldwide and 12th in the UK by the Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2025. 92% of the research conducted at the university rated as world-leading or internationally excellent (REF 2021). It is one of the original red brick universities, a member of the Russell Group of research-intensive universities, the Worldwide Universities Network, the N8 Group of the eight most research intensive universities in Northern England and the White Rose University Consortium.
