£20 million grant to improve universities - Sheffield Today
Sheffield's universities have been given £20 million as part of a nationwide strategy to improve teaching and learning in higher education. Hallam University will create three centres of excellence, and Sheffield two, one jointly with Leeds and York universities. A network of 74 centres in 54 institutions is being set up, with Sheffield's universities among 16 to host more than one. The Hallam centres will focus on issues like the development of e-learning in health and social care, and helping students become more employable. Sheffield's plans include a centre to transform learning methods for its 10,000 students on arts, law and social science courses. The other centre will examine ways of encouraging enterprise in students.
