The University of Sheffield was originally formed by the merger of three colleges. The Sheffield School of Medicine was founded in 1828, followed in 1879 by the opening of Firth College by Mark Firth, a steel manufacturer, to teach arts and science subjects. Firth College then helped to fund the opening of the Sheffield Technical School in 1884 to teach applied science, the only major faculty the existing colleges did not cover. The three institutions merged in 1897 to form The University College of Sheffield. Sheffield is one of the six red brick universities.
The University of Sheffield is a leading research university, located in Sheffield in South Yorkshire, England. Ranked 40 in the World's top 100 Universities by one study and constantly ranked amongst the top 20 universities in Britain and Europe according to The Good University Guide. The university has produced five Nobel Prize winners so far. The University of Sheffield is one of the original 'red brick' universities, a member of the Russell Group.
The University of Sheffield is ranked in the UK's Top 10 and the World's Top 100 universities by the Shanghai Jiao Tong (SJTU) and Times Higher (THE) World University Rankings, and the 2008 RAE found 41 submissions out of 49 of Sheffield's research to be "world-leading" or "internationally excellent" which made Sheffield among the Top Ten in the Russel Group. In 1995, the University took over the Sheffield and North Trent College of Nursing and Midwifery, which greatly increased the size of the medical faculty. In 2005, the South Yorkshire Strategic Health Authority announced that it would split the training between Sheffield and Sheffield Hallam University - however, the University decided to pull out of providing preregistration nursing and midwifery training due to "costs and operational difficulties".
Over the years,
The University of Sheffield has been home to a number of notable writers and scholars, including the literary critic William Empson, who was head of the Department of English; author Angela Carter; five Nobel Prize winners; and Bernard Crick.The brand (encompassing the visual identity) is centered on the theme of "discovery", led by the Latin motto from the coat of arms "Rerum Cognoscere Causes" – "to discover the causes of things" (the same motto is used by the London School of Economics).The visual identity includes two specially-designed fonts, TUOS Blake (sans-serif) and TUOS Stephenson (serif), and a carefully-placed full stop added in the most recent rebranding exercise. The identity has been applied across print, screen and other areas such as signage, vehicle livery and merchandising. The project was key to the University's Marketing Department receiving "HEIST Marketing Team of the Year, 2005".
The University of Sheffield is rated 8th in the UK, 18th in Europe and 69th in the world in an annual academic ranking of the top 500 universities worldwide published in August 2005. Shanghai Jiao Tong University evaluated the universities using several research performance indicators, including the number of highly cited researchers, academic performance, articles in the periodicals Science and Nature, and the number of Nobel prize-winners. A separate ranking, published in the US by Newsweek magazine, and released in August 2006, ranked Sheffield 9th in the UK, 18th in Europe and 70th in the world in a list of the Global Top 100 Universities. The University is rated 12th in the UK, 22nd in Europe and 68th in the world in the Times Higher Education Supplement's November 2007 ranking of the top 100 universities in the world.
The University of Sheffield is not a campus university, though most of its buildings are close together. The centre of the University's presence lies one mile to the west of Sheffield city centre, where there is a mile-long collection of buildings belonging almost entirely to the University. This area includes the Sheffield Students' Union (housed next door to University House), the Octagon Centre, Firth Court, the Geography and Planning building, the Alfred Denny Building (housing natural sciences and including a small museum), the Dainton and Richard Roberts Buildings (chemistry) and the Hicks Building (mathematics and physics).Further west situated Weston Park, the Weston Park Museum, the Harold Cantor Gallery, sports facilities in the Crookesmoor area and medicine, in the Royal Hallamshire Hospital (although taught in the city's extensive teaching hospitals under the Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, and throughout South Yorkshire and North East Lincolnshire).
The University of Sheffield Union of Students was founded in 1906. It has two bars (Bar One – which has a book-able function room with its own bar, The Raynor Lounge – and The Interval); three club venues (Fusion, Foundry and Octagon); one off-campus public house (The Fox and Duck in Broomhill); and coffee shops, restaurants, shops, a supermarket, the cinema Film Unit, a fully functioning and student run theatre company (SUTCo), a student radio station called Forge Radio, its own newspaper, The Forge Press, and about two hundred student societies and many sports teams. As well as rag week, University of Sheffield students used to raise funds by taking part in the Pyjama Jump pub crawl, cross-dressed only in nightwear in mid-winter: the men often dressed in nighties or in drag featuring mini-skirts and fishnet tights, and the women in pyjamas. This event was banned in 1997 following the hospitalisation of several students. Another rag tradition is Spiderwalk, a fifty mile trek through the city and the Peak District, the first half through the night; other societies run fund-raising activities through the night while the walk is on such as a 24-hour role-playing event. Sheffield's students are also very active when it comes to volunteering for good causes.
The University of Sheffield Union's "Sheffield Volunteering" scheme is one of the country’s most active and well-recognised student volunteering schemes and has won various national acclaims over the years
