The first two years of our BEng degree comprehensively cover the fundamental principles of engineering. The pinnacle of your third year centres around an individual research project. This course is designed to enhance your independence, communication skills, and organisational abilities, providing a solid foundation for your future engineering career.

Explore the basis of life at the molecular level. Combining a placement year with our MBiolSci course allows you to gain work experience in industry, before adding an extra year of research training back in the lab in your final year.

Covering the fundamental principles of engineering, with the flexibility to focus on specific areas of interest in later years, this degree provides a blend of theoretical learning with practical hands-on experience, equipping you to tackle and solve real engineering challenges.

This course is about the design and operation of processes for making products such as fuels, medicines, plastics, food and materials for high technology industries. You'll also learn about the production and use of energy. Years one to three are the same as for the BEng (H810). Year four allows further specialisation and study with the emphasis on an individual research project which may be carried out in association with industry.

Prepare for the growing demands of the healthcare sector and pharmaceutical industry with our accredited MChem. Gain fundamental chemistry knowledge, explore specialist topics and work in one of our leading research groups on a project.

You'll learn to understand the theoretical principles underlying a problem, and how to engineer a solution. You'll also become familiar with the practical issues involved in developing reliable, effective software systems in business or industry. As well as being paid a salary during your placement you will pay reduced tuition fees for that year.

On this degree you'll develop ethical data-driven solutions which have a positive impact on organisations and society. Taught by active researchers and developed with industry experts, you'll learn the technical and analytical competencies necessary to become a responsible data scientist.

In this broad, interdisciplinary degree, you will study the momentous questions in philosophy, religion, and ethics that matter most to you. From the value of religious faith and practices to the ethics of climate change or euthanasia, you'll learn to develop and defend your own critical perspectives within the context of global events.

Get a strong grounding in the core disciplines of structures, water engineering and geotechnics. Then in the second half of the course you can focus on more specialised and advanced water engineering modules.

Explore the basis of life at the molecular level, from cells, proteins and DNA, to how these molecules interact to sustain life. Spend a year on a work placement as part of your degree, putting what you've learnt into practice, and testing out a career you're considering.

Study animals and biodiversity at every scale. You'll learn how animals function, how to conserve biodiversity, and how evolution works. Then spend a year on a work placement as part of your degree, putting what you've learnt into practice, and testing out a career you're considering.

You'll learn state-of-the-art software design and programming technologies, and also practise your skills in project management, teamwork and working with customers - skills expected by employers. You'll get a solid grounding in the fundamentals of computer science and the opportunity to explore aspects of artificial intelligence.

Learn about the design and operation of processes for making products such as fuels, medicines, plastics, food and materials for high technology industries. Between years two and three you'll take a paid placement in the chemical engineering industry, putting your academic studies into context and making you even more employable.

Learn about the fundamental concepts in mechatronic and robotic areas, including mathematics, intelligent system design, computing, control, electronics and embedded systems. Then go on to practical work that brings the concepts together using 3D CAD tools, 3D printing, laser cutters and more in the iForge makerspace.

Study in Sheffield for the first two years of your course learning about the fields that are essential to computer systems, including mathematics, control systems, embedded systems and programming. In your third year you will have the opportunity to put into practice what you’ve learnt by working for a year in an engineering placement before returning to Sheffield for your final year studying modules in specialist areas such as system design and security and intelligent systems.

Develop your thinking skills through a distinctive combination of imagination and exact reasoning. This single honours course will give you a solid understanding of the foundation of the discipline, along with a great degree of flexibility to tailor your degree to your own interests.

You'll have the chance to arrange a year in industry. This will put your academic studies into context, improve your skills and enhance your employment prospects. As well as being paid a salary during your placement, you will pay reduced tuition fees for that year.

In our core undergraduate degree, you'll discover the underlying principles of materials science, and how these are applied across materials engineering situations. You can keep your course general or tailor your degree in later years with optional materials modules.

In the first two years of your course, you’ll cover fundamental concepts in mechatronic and robotic areas, including mathematics, intelligent system design, computing, control, electronics and embedded systems. In your third year you’ll put into practice what you’ve learnt on your industrial placement, before returning to Sheffield for your final year of study.

Study in Sheffield for the first two years of your course and cover the theoretical and practical aspects across the range of electrical and electronic engineering. In your third year you have the opportunity to put into practice what you've learnt by working for a year in an engineering company, before returning to Sheffield for your final year of study.
