These are all regional, national and international growth areas that will offer strong career opportunities in the future.
UTC Sheffield have two campuses, UTC Sheffield City Centre and UTC Sheffield Olympic Legacy Park.
Students can join from age 13, in Year 9 or at age 16, in Year 12, and study an academic curriculum – GCSEs and A Levels – alongside their technical specialism. The difference is that all academic study relates to employer-led projects. Students gain the skills and qualifications to open up opportunities for jobs, apprenticeships and university courses.
