Be inspired to help shape the future of healthcare technology on this flexible course. Beginning with a broad-based introduction to biomedical engineering, you'll learn about biology, physiology and anatomy, and begin to understand how traditional engineering principles can be applied to the human body.
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.
This course is about biologically inspired algorithms, their relationship to living biological intelligence and the nature of consciousness itself. Some modules overlap with the main computer science degree, so you get the same solid grounding in the fundamentals. You can specialise in speech recognition, language processing or robotics.
On this course, you'll study all the engineering disciplines associated with buildings and their infrastructure, and develop an understanding of architectural thinking and practice. You will also gain first-hand industry experience.
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.
Build up skills and experience that you can apply to a career in physics research. Our students have had placements ranging from government laboratories to the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. After your placement, you’ll join a research team here in Sheffield and run your own project.
This dual honours degree combines advanced mathematical and technical skills with the opportunity to apply these to real-world economics issues and policy.
Study the laws of the universe and the science behind major technological advances. Learn about international experiments to search for dark matter, ways to make solar energy systems more effective and how the quantum nature of light can help us build even more powerful computers.
You'll gain both breadth and depth of knowledge across the full range of aeronautical and aerospace engineering. You'll also gain the additional project management experience and practical skills which employers demand on this four year course.
If you have an interest in debates surrounding social justice, fairness and equality, or just want the opportunity to learn more about areas of health, welfare, income, labour and migration, then the Sociology with Social Policy BA could be for you.
This course is unique in offering you the opportunity to develop a broad understanding of the relationship between digital media and society from a social science perspective. You will use innovative digital methods to research digital media in society, and learn to make digital media products that focus on the needs of the user.
This course is ideal if you want to help answer the biggest questions in the universe as a physics researcher. You'll learn how particles are detected, study key theories such as relativity, and join a research team that works on major projects at CERN and leads searches for dark matter.
Examine the fundamental mathematics that has brought physicists ever closer to a ‘theory of everything’. You’ll explore the classical physics principles that defined scientific thinking up to the 20th century, and look in depth at topics like relativity and quantum mechanics.
Put your physics knowledge into practice in the real world. As part of their degrees, our students have worked on new particle accelerators at government laboratories, applied their analysis skills to data science jobs in the civil service, and joined the Large Hadron Collider team at CERN.
You will study in Sheffield for the first three years of your course learning about the fields that are essential to computer systems, including mathematics, control systems, embedded systems and programming. In your fourth 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, intelligent systems.
On this course, you can learn from scientists who helped detect the Higgs boson and gravitational waves, and who are leading searches for dark matter. You'll learn how particles are detected, study key theories such as relativity and examine the laws of the universe at the subatomic level.
Sociology focuses on the relationships between individuals and society. It revolves around examining how personal attitudes and experiences relate to wider issues, understanding how group phenomena can give collective meaning to an individual's actions, and on social change and the ways forces, like globalisation, impact upon society.
In the first three 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 fourth year you’ll put into practice what you’ve learnt on your industrial placement, before returning to Sheffield for your final year of study.
Learn about the fields that are essential to computer systems, including mathematics, control systems, embedded systems and programming. Then go on to applied work that brings the concepts together in a practical way, and continue to study advanced modules in specialist areas.
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.
