They are pleased to offer the NCUK Undergraduate Scholarship 2025 to new international students joining an undergraduate degree programme at the University of Sheffield in September 2025 from an NCUK Study Centre.
About University of Sheffield
The University of Sheffield developed from three local institutions: the Sheffield School of Medicine, Firth College and the Sheffield Technical School. The School of Medicine, founded 1828, was by far the oldest. Its early history was very insecure and it was saved from collapse by the opening of Firth College, which took over the teaching of all basic science subjects to medical students.
