Student views

The tutors were very encouraging and always there to support me to create work that felt true to my values and creative voice.

The services are amazing, especially in career advice, student support and volunteering opportunities.

The highlight of my student experience has been realising how far I’ve come, something I couldn’t see at the beginning of my studies. I’ve developed skills I never thought I would, from technical tools to problem-solving and critical thinking.

The school and its lecturers are top-notch at imparting knowledge, and Teesside has the environment and infrastructure to facilitate a positive student experience.

The degree’s unique attribute lies in its ability to provide a nurturing environment where creative freedom flourishes, empowering individuals to boldly express their ideas while benefiting from expert guidance throughout the transformative process.

Moving from my home country to the UK and adjusting to a new culture while managing my studies at Teesside University has been a significant journey of growth. I developed critical, technical and professional skills, which allowed me to apply what I learned effectively.

Lessons are conducted in lecture rooms as well as industry-standard labs which give us practical hands-on experience and learning. Every session is different and thoroughly engaging, and the staff are very supportive.

What I appreciate most about my course is the blend of theoretical knowledge and practical application. The modules are designed to be engaging and offer practical placement experience to train on the job while receiving constructive feedback through observations from tutors and mentors.

The university's staff and facilities, such as the Library, labs, Student Life and indoor sports are of international calibre.
