Both the University of Sheffield and Sheffield Hallam have moved upwards in the table in four of the last five years.
Universities are measured on a number of factors, such as entry standards, student satisfaction, research quality and student-staff ratio.
16 courses taught at the University of Sheffield are ranked in the top ten for their subject, including mechanical engineering, architecture, music and nursing.
At Sheffield Hallam, health studies, land and property management, building and information technology are ranked in the top ten.
These rankings follow on from the announcement that Sheffield Hallam was also ranked 9th in the world on reducing inequality by Times Higher Education last week.
