Graduate Attributes<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

What are Graduate Attributes and how do they contribute to Highly Skilled Employment?<\/span><\/p>\n

Students measure their personal development using the Hallam Graduate Attributes. There are 12 Attributes in total and Sheffield Hallam is committed to supporting its students to develop characteristics which define its values. <\/span><\/p>\n

By embedding the Hallam Graduate Attributes at every level in every course, we are committed to supporting our students in developing characteristics that will define not just institutional values but values for work and life.<\/span><\/p>\n

An attribute is a particular feature or quality that can be seen in an individual. A Graduate Attribute is one that we know employers\u2019 value. Hallam has created a unique 3+3 model and award system to get our students to reflect within and beyond their course. We want to prepare our students for their next steps into Highly Skilled Employment and whatever they choose to do in life.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

3+3 Graduate Attribute Model<\/span><\/p>\n

The Graduate Attributes are divided into 3 core attributes chosen at University level which supports our values.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Hallam Award<\/span><\/p>\n

We also reward students for any extra-curricular activity they may have been involved in during your time at Hallam. Students can use the Graduate Attributes to gain further awards through <\/span>The Hallam Award.<\/a> The Hallam Award enables students to develop their Graduate Attributes through extra-curricular activities that will lead to greater commitment and, or leadership.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Graduate Attributes acknowledge and link learning and development opportunities in and outside of the curriculum. Both the Graduate Attributes and The Hallam Award enable students to position themselves better within their course and help students think about what they might otherwise be developing and take for granted.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Hallam Graduate Attributes support and enhance awareness of core skills, capability and assist students in gaining highly skilled employment.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is at the core of what an education at Sheffield Hallam provides.<\/span><\/p>\n
