School Of English At The University Of Sheffield

A community that is unique in the world in its breadth and depth of study of the English language.

The School of English regards itself as being exceptional in many respects. One of the key hallmarks of this can be found in the interdisciplinary way in which we work. Rather than being separated by our individual specialties, the staff and students of the School work together to exchange ideas and develop new ways of thinking.

Within the School you will find staff conducting international-quality research in English Literature, Theatre and Performance, Creative Writing, Applied Linguistics, Cultures of the British Isles, English Language, and more. And much of this activity is passed onto students through our research-led approach to learning and teaching.
