Welcome to Sheffield

One of the country’s most in-demand student destinations

Home to two universities with more than 40,000 students, Sheffield is a vibrant and friendly learning city.

In recent years, massive investment programmes have transformed the city, creating rapid regeneration, with city living complexes, places to shop, eat and socialise. Sheffield has an excellent choice of cafe bars, pubs and nightclubs, theatres, live music, sport and culture.
