erm...i've never heard of this Uni before. What course do you intend to pursue ? What is the ranking of this Uni in relation to the course ur pursuing ?

wat course are u going there for? heard of sheffield uni but not sheffield hallam...

if you're a tarc college student of computer science, you'll definitely heard this university before.

Marketing course..
Actually havent set my mind to go over there, but need to get advice from others who have much more better experience than me

in my opinion, if u wish to do ur degree there, i advice u to finish ur masters there too, at least at the MA, u'd go for a much more reputable insitution (best would be top 10 in ur field or overall above 30). No point graduating from a uni where not many have ever heard of

well, sheffield hallam is a new university for one thing. located right smack in the middle of sheffield. well, since it's new, it doesnt have much of a reputation, but i dont wanna say that it's a low class university coz i've never even met a single graduate from there.

however, i my lecturer back in msia is currently doing his PhD there, but that's only because sheffield hallam apparently paid more to their experts than most other universities in the UK.

ya, if go there, hope to get master as well..
consider of $ matter ...others uni seems too expensive for me.. this 1 is more affordable...
sometimes confuse, wil it be useful if i come out from a uni which is not famous(but at least i get a master)...or juz a degree(but from better uni)

yupe, Sheffield is more famous than Sheffiled Hallam

yupe, thats rite.
u r one of the computer science student?

Post merged. Use EDIT button next time -darkages

i wouldn't say its a bad uni due to its recognition or anything since its newly established. wat worries is the career employability. Surely they would have good lecturers but based on their reputation no one is sure what this uni is capable of.

anyway, fairy6262, you can always be the pioneer in achieving success n glorify that institution, they might handsomely award you scholarship in future too for ur MA =P. anyway this site here http://education.guardian.co.uk/universityguide2004 usually helps those who wish to study in UK. though might not be 100% accurate, at least it gives you a brief idea abt the places u can opt to go for. Anotehr ranking would be the Times Good University guide.

oo.... my fren studying business administration adv diploma in TARC oso will be taking degree at Sheffield Hallam University UK..

but they will only go there for 3 month i think

thanks for the sharing of fatman_xing.
thanks for providing the website as well
its helped

3 months top-up degree.
ur fren wil b going by this year or...next year?

What I'm about to say is just my personal opinion. I do not intend to offend anyone , directly or indirectly or whatever, duh...

Sheffiled univeristy is a reputable university.

Sheffield hallam(another university) is the top ten lousiest univeristy in the UK. Given a chance, Don't go there man. They are definitely not worth you. If you are spending pounds for that....not worth a single penny.

You must be in Tarc's business school.

Peace

how about liverpool U?
cause this also is a optional if dun wan go SHU

university of liverpool? now dats pretty reputable but i've only heard highly of da medicine courses there

i studying electronic engineering,,,,
but i hear that SHU more better than liverpoor ..
i mean my senior....
and should i go SHU after my advance diploma?

study master for ee really wasted, it just worth if u wan to be lecturer only

Do you have proof to strengthen your statement?

SHU better than Liverpool? Well, I don't know about that. But what I do know is Univeristy of Sheffield is better than Liverpool, but I'm not too sure about Sheffield Hallam University. Liverpool excel in Aeronautical Engineering, if I'm not mistaken.

You guys have been misleaded. It's not University of Liverpool. It's Liverpool John Moores University.

wtf? liverpool john moores? 1st its not sheffield uni now its not liverpool? where have all this unis crop up from?

Many of these universities are post 92 universities, universities which were polytechnics before 1992. It is akin to a Nigerian coming to Malaysia to study at KUSTEM or whatever KKTT we have here.

These universities are cash-strapped, anyone who has money can register anytime.

It is alright to spend 3 months and get a degree from SHU, but if one considers to do the entire 3 years there, one is nothing but a fool. More than a fool actually.

It is also sheer folly to get an MA in marketing either from SHU or some place else.
