Discover qualifications beyond a Bachelors degree
At most universities, the typical qualification on offer is a standard three-year Bachelors degree, but that might not be to everybody’s taste, and it certainly doesn’t offer you the same practical, hands-on experience that many of our programmes at UC Sheffield do.
Visiting our open day will give you the chance to explore all our different qualification types and find out which one suits your learning style, and your career aspirations, the best. Whether you want to go a more traditional route with a foundation degree, or you value the real-world technical skills that a Higher Technical Qualification offers, our UC Sheffield Team can walk you through the different options available.
Meet our expert tutors
When you’re learning at the top level, you want to know that you’re being taught by top-level teachers, and our tutors certainly fall into that category! Not only do they have years of teaching experience between them, but many of our Tutors also have invaluable industry experience, so they can help you explore theoretical concepts by applying them to real-world scenarios.
You’ll also be able to benefit from their industry connections, with many of our Tutors bringing in guest speakers or arranging site visits to with local employers so that you can get even more real-world experience.
Our Open Days will give you the opportunity to meet our UC Sheffield Tutors and discuss the ins and outs of our programmes with the people who will be delivering them.
Explore our industry-standard facilities
No matter which area or qualification you’re interested in, all of our facilities are designed to mirror those that you’ll be using in the real world, so that you can gain confidence and build up your skills.
