What is the Student hub?
The student hub is a secure but restricted section of the Sheffield University website providing extra services and study support that is not viewable on the public section of the website. Essentially, there's three sections to the University website:
Public website (can be viewed by anyone)
Student website (restricted to members of Sheffield University)
Staff website (restricted to members of Sheffield University)
As a student, once you have signed into the University website with your IT (also known as MUSE) account, you can access the student hub to get to resources only visible to University members.
