Some of our graduates share their experiences of what it's like to study politics, live and work in Sheffield and what they've gone on to do since graduating.
James JW Manville

"My degree supported me from the very start, helping me to develop research, writing, and verbal communication skills that were vital for taking the first steps in my career and are skills I still use to this day."
Isaac Silver
BA International Relations and Politics
"Studying abroad is about new experiences and the unknown; it is supposed to induce a bit of vertigo. The best way down from that ledge, in my opinion, is to close your eyes and step off."
"Studying abroad has changed my mindset on the future, it helped me realise that the world is too big to settle and has spurred me on to travel the world."
