Hallam Union: What’s it all about then?

Not sure what on earth is meant by a students union? Hopefully this will clear the mists a bit but the best way to find out is to come into the union and see for yourself. Pick up one of our “get involved” booklets to get a full list of all the activities that are going on here at Hallam Union.

University: the basics

Every course is slightly different but there are some things that stay roughly the same across the board so hopefully this will give you a heads up before you get your time table sorted.

If you still have questions about anything freshers related you can contact our advice centre on advicecentre@shu.ac.uk or call freephone 0800 0732 002
