About this newsletter

At Sheffield Hallam University we value all of our students equally, regardless of whether you’re based at City or Collegiate Campus here in Sheffield or attending at one of our partner institutions from countries across the world.

The GoGlobal newsletter is a collection of articles and support designed to keep all of our students based abroad up-to-date with what’s happening at Sheffield Hallam, as well as to hear from you about your experiences and achievements!

Our newsletter is sent out every two weeks, and features events that are happening around the University, support that can be accessed while studying abroad and highlights student profiles and achievements throughout the year.

If you have any ideas of what we could feature in future issues, or (even better!)  if you’d like to submit an article yourself then please get in touch with us via Facebook, Twitter or email.

Happy Chinese New Year to all our Chinese students

Chinese New Year is the biggest Chinese festival of the year, and we at GoGlobal love to celebrate it with our students!

As it’s based on the lunar calendar, the date changes each year, falling in either January or February to correspond to the black or new moon. As we move into the year of the monkey, we thought it’d be a great idea to highlight the fantastic event that our students put on to mark the start of the new year!

A celebration event was set up and organised by event management students from the Sheffield Business School and our own International Experience Team; the event included delicious traditional food, craft and cultural demonstrations, as well as a chance to learn about how Chinese New Year is celebrated.

SHU Fest – Selfie Competition

This year’s SHU Fest Selfie Competition is bigger and better than ever!

If you fancy yourself as a bit of a Kim Kardashian-level selfie master then this is the SHU Fest event for you.

If you take a selfie with our booklet then you could win a prize! Post or share your selfie on Twitter or Facebook. Simply print off the first page of the booklet here, and take your selfie. Get creative with it: we’d like to see where you study, sights from where you live and your friends and pets!

In previous years we’ve had students  do group pictures, selfies at the top of mountains and even make a dress out of booklets so get thinking!
