Wednesday 17 July 2013
The University of Sheffield
Your graduation day is a special day for you and your family, a day for celebrating your achievements
and looking forward to a bright future. As a graduate of the University of Sheffield you have every reason
to be proud. You are joining a long tradition of excellence stretching back more than 100 years.
The University of Sheffield was founded with the amalgamation of the School of Medicine, Sheffield
Technical School and Firth College. In 1905, we received a Royal Charter and Firth Court was officially
opened by King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra. At that time, there were 363 students reading for
degrees in arts, pure science, medicine and applied science. By the time of our centenary, there were over
25,000 students from more than 100 countries, across 70 academic departments.
Today, a degree from Sheffield is recognised all over the world as a hallmark of academic excellence.
We are proud of our graduates and we are confident that you will make a difference wherever you choose
to build your future.
With every generation of graduates, our university goes from strength to strength.
This is the original fundraising poster from 1904/1905
which helped raise donations for the University of
Sheffield.
Over £50,000 (worth more than £15 million today) was
donated by steelworkers, coal miners, factory workers and
the people of Sheffield in penny donations to help found
the University.
A century on, the University is now rated as one of the top
world universities – according to the Shanghai Jiao Tong
Academic Ranking of World Universities.

But this is by no means the end of your association with the
University. Today you are joining the ever-growing global community
of University of Sheffield alumni. We hope that you will keep in touch
with us, and with each other, in the years to come.
Congratulations to you and a warm welcome to your family and
friends. We hope everyone here today enjoys this very special
occasion.

Reasons to be Proud
Celebrating success at The University of Sheffield
Graduation is a time to recognise achievement and success, and each graduate has a story to tell of
effort and attainment. Today’s graduates also have every reason to feel proud, not only of their own
success, but that they are graduating from a world-leading university which is making a powerful
difference in the world and helping to address some of the most urgent challenges facing society.
The University of Sheffield is proud of its Nobel Prize winners and to have been awarded the honour
of the Queen’s Anniversary Prize for Higher Education on no less than four occasions. It was also
named Times Higher Education ‘University of the Year’, with expert judges from UK higher education,
industry and government recognising the outstanding achievements of The University of Sheffield
as a top international university, describing qualities of ‘grit and determination’ in applying our
expertise to real world challenges, and developing the talented young people whose skills will
be so crucial to all our futures.
Research which changes lives
So what are some of the highlights in a university which
is committed to putting knowledge into action? Here are
just a few reasons to be proud of your university:
Sufferers of degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s
and Parkinson’s are benefitting from a unique new home
for research relating to these devastating conditions.
The Sheffield Institute for Translational Neuroscience
(SITraN) was opened by Her Majesty the Queen in 2010
and is a £12M development funded by benefactors
eager to see a step change in the treatment of patients.
Within just two years, researchers with expertise in
neuroscience, computer modelling and pharmacy are
developing treatments which are already giving hope to
sufferers, including a new treatment for the childhood
form of Motor Neurone Disease.
Patients are also being supported by life-changing work at
The University of Sheffield to develop cures for deafness,
regenerate parts of the eye for those who have lost their
sight, develop adaptive technologies for people who
have suffered strokes and to develop ‘engineering for
life’ solutions which will give greater independence and
dignity to people in need, especially elderly patients living
with challenging conditions at home.
The interface between molecular science, engineering
application and social impact is being transformed
following the opening of the Kroto Research Institute,
named after our Nobel Prize winner Sir Harry Kroto.
Researchers are uniting to improve lives, through stem
cell therapies which can help to repair nerve damage. And
Sheffield staff, students and graduates were part of the
great achievements of the past year, from helping design
the equipment used to find the Higgs Boson at CERN, to
the design of the Olympic Park where Sheffield graduate
Jessica Ennis-Hill took gold for Team GB!
Sheffield students – putting knowledge into action in ways which make
a difference.
Expertise which supports our economy
The UK’s manufacturing supply chain is being helped
to thrive in a global market through the University’s
Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre, which was
recently named Boeing’s Supplier of the Year – the
first time such an award had been made in the UK. The
Government has also announced its support to develop
a £43M Factory 2050, which will be the world’s most
advanced factory. The AMRC is also expanding to include
a major centre for engineering design and is recruiting
250 technical apprentices to work and study, developing
the talents of young people ready to support the high
tech manufacturing of the future.
Meanwhile, the national and international challenge
to develop politics and economics in the 21st century
are being addressed by the Sheffield Political Economy
Research Institute (SPERI). This new Institute brings
together leading international researchers in the social
sciences, policy-makers, journalists and opinion formers
to develop new ideas and policies following the global
financial crisis and its legacy.
The University of Sheffield Graduation: Wednesday 17 July 2013
People with creativity and passion
Yet without doubt, the University’s greatest asset is its
people, and that, of course, includes our students.
In the past year, more students than ever have been
involved with Sheffield Volunteering, turning their
expertise and enthusiasm into active citizenship.
Around 1,300 students have volunteered in projects
across the City and region ranging from mentoring and
environmental projects to legal advice and work with
children facing disability or bereavement. Our Students’
Union RAG (Raising and Giving) charity raised £178,000 to
benefit local charities.
Memories of making a difference – over 1,300 students each year take part in
Sheffield Volunteering, and raise almost £200,000 for local charities.
This creativity and energy also unites the University
with the people of Sheffield. In September last year,
the University and City’s creative community came
together to hold a ten day ‘Festival of the Mind’. The first
ever collaboration of its kind. 16,000 people of all ages
attended over 70 events in venues across the City and
at the University, with topics ranging from science to
philosophy, from robots to poetry.
The awards which came in celebrated our efforts.
We were proud to, once again, take the title of ‘Best
Students’ Union in Britain’ as voted for by students,
with an outstanding satisfaction of 90% in the National
Student Survey. Our Student Services, IT and Library
were named national, and even international, leaders.
But the accolades which mean the most are those which
come from the people who know us best.
Engineering and medicine come together as Sheffield leads the way in work on
personalised medicine and using the power of the latest innovations in computing
to help make a difference to treatment and diagnosis.
The University of Sheffield was described as the
UK university which students were most likely to
recommend to their friends. The reasons are as diverse
as our students and graduates, but we are proud that a
degree from The University of Sheffield continues to be
the hallmark of quality.
We wish you all the very best for the future – and we do
so knowing that you are a University of Sheffield graduate
with every reason to be proud.

Honorary Degrees
The University of Sheffield confers honorary degrees (or degrees honoris causa – as a ‘mark of
honour’) on people who have given distinguished service or brought distinction to the University,
the City of Sheffield or the region. They may be individuals of national or international standing or
alumni of the University who have risen to the heights of their chosen profession or field of service.
The University tradition of recognising excellence in this way dates back to the first congregation to
award Sheffield degrees. This took place on 2 July 1908 in Firth Hall, and the first honorary degree
was awarded to the then Chancellor, the Duke of Norfolk. The University is proud to include many
notable figures amongst its honorary graduates in the years since and 2013 is no exception.

The Arms of the University of Sheffield
The University Arms, whose background colour is azure, contains a gold-edged open book at its centre, on which is
inscribed Disce Doce (Learn and Teach).
On either side of the book is a sheaf of eight silver arrows, which is derived from the shield of old Sheffield. The gold
crown is the Crown of Success and the White Rose of York denotes the University’s home county. The scroll carries the
motto of Firth College, Rerum Cognoscere Causas (To Discover the Causes of Things; from Virgil’s Georgics II, 490).
The University mace, which precedes the presiding officer in the academic procession, is made from silver gilt. Used for
the first time in 1909, it bears the Arms of both the University and the City of Sheffield, the York Rose, and the figure of
Minerva holding the wreath and palm branch.
